Craig's height & my bluetooth

Nope - I'd never realized before how tall he is - something like 6'4" in his shoes. I'm 5'8" in shoes on a good day.

Stage direction through bluetooth - great idea!

So, now that BLMA announced

So, now that BLMA announced the cars. ExactRail strikes back an releases the EXACT same cars, in both scales!

5-8 is OK

After dog sledding at North Lake Tahoe in January 2009, I spent a bit of time at the Truckee station.  There I observed a westbound train consisting entirely of those reefers.  All had graffiti three feet up their sides.

I'm 5'8" and found it works with 5'2" ladies.  Anyway, too-tall people have shorter life spans.
