A little outside of modeling discussion but I saw that the UP schedule for 844 and The Big Boy has been released for their trip to the Golden Spike ceremonies this April/May in Utah! This includes a double header on the return!

Difference between iPad and iPhone and the forum......

Wed, 2019-03-13 03:53 — herronp

I’m curious about something and am wondering if the group might have an answer. I got a new iPhone 10 and at the same time I finally broke down and bought an iPad, the new 10” Pro. They are basically identical with the same apps, IOS, and functionality. My problem is this. The iPhone keeps me logged in for days at a time and the iPad does not. It’s so bad that if I accidentally hit the delete (backspace to non Apple users) once too many I get to the first screen and have to log in again.

First week of March already! I had the pleasure of meeting jcshall a couple of weeks ago. It’s an honor to follow a new friend! Here’s a picture I took at the Mississippi Agriculture and Forestry Museum in Jackson, Mississippi. Tim Latham, a name you should recognize from the forum here, was our gracious tour guide and now another new friend for the “royal tour”. I’ll have pictures up shortly of their three layouts.

Hey folks,

I'm posting here seeking advice.

My Grandpa died. He made a big model railroad during my childhood, and I don't want it to get thrown away or parrted out. It's in Laporte, Indiana. Any advice on finding it a home and someone who would want to refurbish it?

Are You A Digital Hoarder?

Sun, 2019-02-17 07:57 — Will_Annand

When I went to File Explorer to find a file today, I noticed my "Archive" hard drive was red lining. I went to find out why. On that drive are my personal files, music, pictures and my Model Rail folder.

The model rail folder contains all the info I have collected on my railway of choice, The Credit Valley Railway. As well as any photos and articles (both historical and hobby related) and digital magazines. Also any videos I have collected.

Here is what the Properties box looks like:

Good evening all,

I'd like to share a couple of 1+ minute videos taken at the Amherst (W. Springfield, MA) Free-mo layout. The videos are only of the 2 ends of the layout. I'm sorry to report the remaining videos were not viewable.
