Hey, Bill!  How the heck are you!

Long time (like NEVER), no see!  Glad to see the outline of your son, now we know what your silhouette is like!

Very impressive videos.  Now I know what I have to shoot for.

Moving to new digs in January, and plan a small but expandable HO layout with TE system like Atlantic Central's, and a similar modest GR.  Perhaps we can discuss a good starting point for a diesel electric for a GR, and battery power.  I was thinking a GP-9 or similar.

Will get the stuff up on U-Tube, one hopes.

Merry Christmas to you and Family!

Thanks Jack, I will pass on your compliments to him,  He wasn't happy about his shadow in the wid!!   Says he will have to do better next time!!

Glad to see things are moving on your new place.  I will help all I can with the battery stuff. 

Remember getting the railroad running is more important than eating, and other non-essential stuff ;D!!

Someone suggested that my son should do a video from the loco, so he mounted the camera on top of the GP-38 and plowed some more snow yesterday.  There was some Ice build up on the tracks, but he still made it.  Here is the link:
