Hi Guys: A great New Year's resolution for me would be to have more work-bees with the guys I hang out with. A lot tends to get done that way, and has been noted, there are so few of us around, that it's worth inventing our own social occasions.
Happy New Year to all Jim Martin ________________________________ From: scale S only <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, December 30, 2011 12:03:42 PM Subject: {S-Scale List} FNF 12/30/11 Hi all -- Ken’s report on last night’s doings at his place reminded me that this is Friday. I had an S scale guy up from Scottsdale yesterday, Nelson Steinmetz. He has a layout a bit larger than mine, all ATSF and fully sceniced. There are a few (very few) of us in AZ... We had a good time running trains and a loco he brought with him. The railroad behaved exceptionally well with no gremlins lurking. This week I also got cracking on bringing the narrow gauge line down from Coal Creek. Made lots of sawdust out on the front porch cutting risers and subgrade... I am slowly working my way through the pile of benchwork stuff I brought over from the old SLE&P in CA. Pretty soon I will be able to clear out the trainroom and garage of all the scrap lumber! Also done this week were several NASG items. The one that the general population will see pretty soon is a new face and organization for the NASG website. Peter Vanvliet has been working on this, and his expertise shows. We hope to have the initial changes in place by the end of January, but real life does get in the way of volunteer efforts on occasion. I hope everyone has a great new year’s celebration (well, not TOO great!) and a fine new year.

Guys brought projects of their own, others worked on the layout and at the end of the night almost as much was done as said. So nice to be in S Scale where guys are so friendly and get along well. I wish everyone a happy and peaceful new year. Keep the wheels rolling and the rails shining. I gotta go, I am helping Steve Doyle on his layout today, he has Model Tech things to show me but I doubt he has anything solid on the U-33.
