Going thru old E mails. I think I found a box with what I think are the covered hopper trucks. Have you or the group assembled any yet?
What is Gordies last name. Who was he with in the Pacific. Send him on an Honor Flight. I went on one even though I had seen the WWII Memorial 3 years ago. A lot of family members are, or have been active in DC since 1932. My dad (a Captain in WW I0 later as a civilian had a Chief of Staff clearance pass. Some great stories there. John Armstrong Have you wound down from the Convention? ----- Original Message ----- From: mhrywest To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, April 06, 2010 10:10 AM Subject: {S-Scale List} Everything in moderation Well done Sir moderator and under conditions of duress no less. I wholeheartedly support your message and will at all times and in all posts attempt to conform to the standards outlined. Ed, I have you down as the official M and M loader/tester. You are correct, we have no Kings in Minnesota, we are far to populist a state to have something like that. We do have titles that imply some position of nobility. In example, Dave Jasper calls himself "David the Elder" when not calling himself Sylas Kayle the famous author and S Scaler. Steve Doyle is a "Prince of a fella" known for eloquence and charm, personally, I am "that Damn Ken" but from posts here you know why. Carey, I am glad the M and M to 3M explanation was provided, some strange thought connections occur on this list from time to time. John, last night Ted Larson was asking about projects and I showed him the box of hopper parts. I have added six additional hopper projects I had started to the project box and encouraged Ted to have at it. While he may do that, I find that like most model railroad clubs, when all is said and done, more is said than done. I would promise great progress by the convention but there are so many things to get done by then, I don't want to promise more. Marilyn and I are visiting her Uncle Gordy over Memorial Day, Gordie is also a Marine WWII Pacific Theater veteran. I would like to bring him to Washington to see the memorial but he has not felt up to the trip. Last night I had some of the PPSSW guys over to operate the Minnesota Heartland Western Division, it was a great evening, I was satisfied with the way things went, a couple of trackwork bugs showed up, one a broken point, two old "things" I had forgotten to finish correctly. Strange how these things goof up with company around. Most important was they read the instructions, followed the maps and depended on the signage around the layout. When something wasn't clear, they pointed it out with suggestions so I could fix it. Some things they noted were so automatic to me, I never thought considered adding an instruction of sign. Still a great deal of work to do before July to fine turn the operation before distinguished guests come to town.
