Holy Helixes! You have got to see this.
The alarm was jarring. It was still too early to get up. Hitting "1 Hour Rewind" next to the "Snooze" button should have caused the time display to flicker and jump back an hour while the early morning light suddenly shifted its angle and dimmed, but instead it flashed "Max Rewinds".

Catch-up days were always bittersweet. Nothing was allowed to happen that day so the Not-Caught-Up could, as the name implied, catch up. That was a small price for people to pay to be able to "rewind time". After all, if you chose the option not to know nothing was real, rewinding an hour was magic.
With the way things are, I wonder if half the country doesn't even realize why prices are going up (this time). It seems every "this time" prices go up a little more than they need to, and then don't go back down as far as they should.
Nope, got you beat: 86 yesterday and now it's snowing. Well, it's above freezing so it won't stick... so I can't complain too much.
It was 85 yesterday and today it's snowing. That's just weird.
Surprising cargo.
Work's over for the day, let's tin some dropper wires! Tiny steps... #ModelRailway
Taking some static grass lessons from this one.
You know, I've never thought about using it to pass the time because I am so into using it as something to look forward to.π€

This track is a few degrees off from parallel to the other two tracks next to it, but I think I can live with that considering how useful it is.
On Mar. 7, 2026, at a model RR club operating session in the historic Agnew depot in Santa Clara, CA. ATSF 1862 led an "Eastbound Peddler" here crossing "Mouse Creek."

I had to look up that metaphorical adjective and then I laughed.

Yesterday I was working on a tiny loco in a giant box so I wouldn't lose parts, and when the coupler came out so did a spring. Maybe the trick is to work over a bucket of water so nothing can bounce. Kidding/not kidding lol.
Matches nicely.
Bob and the mailman stood next to the giant locomotive in the yard of his house:
"Didn't the $500,000 price tag raise any flags for you?"
"Brass is expensive, I figured."
It's probably concerning that the genius machines can't tell the difference between real trains and model trains. I feel like we'll see some Spinal Tap style misordering. It'd be funny if a model train was delivered instead of a real one, but really awkward the other way around.π€
How to take apart a little tiny locomotive and put it back together again. #modelTrains

How different does the old body look from the new one? Did you have any fitting challenges? How'd you figure out how to do the inside so it fit onto the chassis?
GP9 progress - the fans are fitted to the long hood, and that and the cab have been attached to the frames. I had hoped to paint it as component parts, but it needs to be assembled for me to scratchbuild the short hood. #hoscale #modelrailway #modeltrains #kitbash #187scale #bsmrguk

So they're fauxtotypical?
With the Turbomotive in the process of being printed, I've started work on the next body shell. This one is an English Electric GT3. In a previous post I said I was repairing a faulty B12 chassis to use for this project, now I think I have fixed it and it runs so much better. #modelrailway #3Ddesign
Wanted. Railway Modeller magazines for year 1974 and 1975, all issues, we can collect. We are also interested in other railway magazines and books. #railwaymodeller #railways #RailMags #railwaymodelling #modelrailway railmags.org
I'm trying for as close to prototype-looking (not matching some real place though) so it would stand out to me if I didn't do the whole thing. Some areas are supposed to be concrete so there I have to figure out how to get that look... foam clay works pretty well for the pads but not their edges.
