It looks like one of the online pushers has it on there website. Hopefully they didn't jump the shark and ruin it for everyone else.

Apropros of nothing, but FYI "jump the shark" doesn't mean the same thing as "jump the gun". Jumping the shark refers to a really bad Happy Days episode (where The Fonz literally jumped over a shark with his motorcycle) and means "you've peaked and are now spiraling downward"  :D

Cheers,
-Mark

Wait a minute.
Isn't a S-bend what they call that section of plumbing under the kitchen sink to trap gasses!?!
Don't think I want a expensive model loco going through that! :scared:

Just use the garbage disposal first so it isn't really a loco by the time it gets there.

I don't model steam and they all look the same to me but I get excited every time there's a new steam release simply from how excited steam people get about it.  It's like showing up at a big celebration but you don't know what they're celebrating but it's a good party so join in!

Sorry, I guess you using the phrase the way you did somehow lead me to think you might not :facepalm:

Of all the things in this thread worthy of debate, this subject probably ain't one of them, lol.

No that is called a 'S' or 'P' trap, (depending on the shape) to be pedantic.

Not to correct the correction, but he was water skiing when he jumped the shark.

It's at this point where you have to wonder what would happen if a Pennsy K4 had been announced?  :trollface:
