Curt - Your build is really coming along. I'll figure out some use for the FP-7 and B unit. I can always use them for my tourist train that does connect with the NP at Logan and can pull an assortment of passengers cars South to Yellowstone Park. I do have a hodge podge of passenger cars for this.
Eric - I think I am in the alternative. We started off at 30 degrees and the temp rose above freezing and then dropped. The present temp is now 18 and the roads were a sheet of ice. Fun and games. Sears did deliver the new snowblower and it did a really nice job. I was a heavy wet snow which is not the norm up here and still performed nicely cleaning up about 8" of the stuff.

Jesse - I am still a fan of NASCAR as I have been to the Daytona 500 somewhere around 25 times over the years. The wife and I enjoy taking road trips and a NASCAR race is usually a good excuse for one. Unfortunately, with the recent rule changes, I think we'll be heading to operating steam railroads instead in the future.
Terry - Anything to get into your wallet.
