PRR REA's and potential unique OP's use(s)
« on: April 14, 2020, 06:39:34 PM »

found an interesting snippet today while watching the documentary "America's Book of Secrets" on Netflix (Season 1, Episode 3)

specifically, that when gold was transported in and out of Ft. Knox by rail (when the destination was West Point or NYC) the Standard RR was used.. in this case... a Heavyweight REA

I caught the interesting fact with 3:51 remaining

kinda gives an interesting spin on potential Op's and special loads

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Ugh... I got through Season 1 and it was like a root canal extraction

I did Letterkenny last week which I liked
I also did Big Mouth...  which was fun

im currently slogging through BrewBrothers which sucks and I am giving up on

and my big find recently over past 2 weeks is Club Quarantine on the ol' Instagram

other than that
it is a lot of Radio Classics on Sirius and I am re-watching Archer on Hulu for the third time (Boom Phrasing!)


as well as working in the basement

You didn't like Narcos? You were the one who MADE ME watch it!
Big Mouth is great. So sick.

yeah, Narcos was good initially... he did his thing... then they caught him... nice and tidy in season 1...
I just can't invest anymore in it...

I'm also dabbling in a little podcasting... listening to Marc Maron (wherever your podcasts are found at) and Joe Rogan (via YouTube)… which I find amusing at some of the stories his guests tell.

yeah
I think season 1 ended with them coming down on him and him escaping
and maybe season 2 was where they killed him in the end

last I recall, they were coming down in him in his outpost and he escaped in a tunnel I think as they shot up his crew

anyway...  how's the Hellgate models coming?

I actually finished grab irons on them. The floors are badly bowed do I will be using the @Lemosteam method of using steel to add weight and straighten the floors. Should be here in a few days.
