Piks (Skip ), No one has pushed any boundaries that I know of here in the Crew lounge. This is an area that doesn't HAVE to be related directly with/to trains. Sort of an area one can "hang out" if you will and chew the fat or B.S. a bit.(Donnell can clear this up if I'm off base somewhat)  Never seen your 1st pic. The 2nd one, I know who that is and the 3rd, is cute and in this day and time, getting to be pretty accurate!! ;D Welcome to the Forum. I'm sure you've seen several familiar names already. P.S. About the ads..... IIRC, they're part of the web host to help pay the bills. |

rhpd42002 (whew, long user name) , ...yes, I do recognize many names already here. And yes, The Spikre sent me. But, although he hears a different drummer, I , in fact, am completly innocent and aboveboard. (yeah, right). Case in point.....  (Strasburg, of course) If this is a place where all can sit down together, chew the fat, and relish the rails ( past and present) than count me in. Thanks for your reply rhpd42002...who ever the hell you are piks |

Don't mind the ads at all, and if they help pay the bills....even better. That first pic is of Sigourny Weaver (in the movie "Dave"), and that is pure class IMO. Will try to keep things light......  |

I liked the lady in the film 'Dave' especially the words "I don't want to lose you".
I have a lady photo of my first lady fireman, may I send it via e mail similar to the 0 scale drover/caboose which got published in the ho section. Afterwards the newspaper cutting was plastered all over my depot and leg pulling mayhem was the order of the day/week/month etc.

James, Please do send a picture of the "lady fireman" here. Love to see it. Best I can do is this photo of a cleaning lady, on the Marion, (truss rods and all) early October 2006. ........  ...the beginning of a beautiful day in Strasburg, PA, USA. Clear refreshing air, trains, good early morning photography light.....it doesn't get better than that. ;D Skip |

James, (it is Sunday ) Feel free to send me the pic and I'll get it posted a good bit sooner than your Drover's Coach! I can now do it without help from my youngest son. ;D Skip, my "moniker" is the same I've used from early on and never changed it. I have posted on the old Atlas Forum, but not a lot. Mostly lurked. However I am Mike O., one of so many Mike's in cyberspace, so I add the initial of my last name, too. Even that doesn't help, sometimes. That is a classy pic of Sigourney. Nice pic of the Strasburg car, too.  |

mike, did the photo's of sandy come over alright ?sorry for all lower case 'bramble' is in his usual place and breathing into my nose!..jim.
Just a thought, as I am just a junior member am I allowed to come into the crew lounge?
When I was an engine cleaner if we were not acting as a fireman we were not allowed into the drivers mess room. The charge cleaner used to on his rounds look in to see if any of us were in there and hoik us out back onto what duties we had been allocated to.How do I stand? I remember in 1956 when a surplus fireman and 'spare'I was chucked out of the cleaners mess room and told to go to the drivers room! You can't win!!
Jim........10-29hrs 1st Dec 12AD
We got our first snow today and the temp 1.6 degrees..JB.

Just been busy at work, except yesterday, when LD kept me quite busy with things around the house. I'll try to get them posted tomorrow. Who's the gent in the one pic with Sandy? Keep the snow, I don't want any if I can help it. Terry, nice pic of Sigourney. |

WOW, the ads above show the Homedics AF100 Hepa Air Cleaner I just bought on line today.. Glad I wasn't shopping for something else....... www.bloomberg.com/video/designing-the-ultimate-underwear-body-not-included-lwgsT2Y0QbCKTFJ6yo0Rsg.html(play through the ads guys, it's worth it.... ) I know, you have to pay the bills. No harm, no foul. But we all have to realize we are being followed here on the www. And no, there is no connection between that link above and Sigourney. Maybe. Keeping it light..... ;D, Skip / Sluggo |
