Well guys its almost that time of year what are you hoping to be sitting under the Christmas tree on Christmas morning? I am hoping for my radio control throttle which it due to arrive just in time for SANTA to put in my stocking I may even go to the hobby shop and buy myself a present, not sure what yet i'll just have to browse the store
Well, since Jan never reads here, I'll tell a secret. She decided to lose a little weight, so she will be a fox by Christmess. It has been a struggle for her, eat right, exercise, and stuck with it too! Her favorite is onyx and silver jewelery, and predominately black clothes. So I got her a fancy pair of black long boots with tigers embroidered on them, a pair of llong dangly onyx and silver ear drops, and a 3/4 long coat. She doesn't suspect a thing about these, because I bought her a new outfit, that she knows about, (it had to fit), and she said that was enough for one Christmass. Yeah I try to keep her spoiled! She has ordered several antique Railroad text books, rule books and Civil Engineering books, and got a "large" HO engine for me. That is all I know about it so far. I am hoping to have some more data to share here, and will "just have to bring myself" to add another stall to the roundhouse it seems! HA! I can't help it if I'm a spoiled child too, but we get along!
I hope that he will bring me a Digitrax Empire (from me to me), and maybe a Dremel Tool (from my wife to me). Jesper
I know he is bringing me a new Videotape (Southern California Hot Spots) He already sent me a GHQ Mi-Jack Straddle Loader
I still have no clue.. I have 2 BNSF Kato snoots in layaway in the hobby shop, but I still don't know yet what the wife is getting me...
I hope that Santa goes to the Atlas factory and kicks them in the rear so that I will have my two shiny new N scale Dash8-40B's in CSX by Christmas. If not I will be playing with my son's new Thomas set on Christmas morning.(Mommmmmmmyyyyy..... daddy won't let me play with my new train!)
Beside Ol'e Big Red "Santa" Dropping stuff here All year, around 20 Athearn units for starters, My Dear Girlfriend, who has to here all this train stuff ALL THE TIME, is going to let me drop 330.00 on the New Rivarossi 2-6-6-6 Alegheny, OH BOY-O-BOY, Can't wait for that to get here, And I Hate X-Mas, and I don't even have a layout built yet..... To HemiAdda2d, "My wife calls me a train freak... I'm not a train freak, I'm a 'Model railroad inventory control specialist!" Hey, Your one to, I'll have to remeber this one,
Santa Claus provided five airline tickets at greatly reduced prices so our kids (and their parental chaperones) can visit their grandparents for Christmas. My wife says she's not buying any Christmas or birthday presents until we get the credit cards paid waaaaayyyy down. Maybe next week I'll be able to do just that... Pat
Hopefully all the Kadee couplers I can handle and some Dullcote and decals. I'll be happy. Nothing major! As it is I donno what big jolly's bringing... As I believe my Christmas funds are history. I done used them up! HA HA Ohh well.. I'll have fun working on my stuff and all Christmas day and if nothing else break out the MRC and run trains till my hearts content....
