| 06/20/2022 00:39:44 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Fer sure - gnight |
| 06/20/2022 00:39:37 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | maybe it was a drawing I found |
| 06/20/2022 00:39:20 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | If you remember drop me a line and for now good night to you |
| 06/20/2022 00:38:53 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | Oh, you wanted some tunnel dims, i have a note, which ones |
| 06/20/2022 00:38:51 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Likewise 👍👍😎 |
| 06/20/2022 00:38:33 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Have a good night Ron |
| 06/20/2022 00:38:28 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | and I'll do the same |
| 06/20/2022 00:38:18 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | next week |
| 06/20/2022 00:38:17 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Will keep you abreast of developments |
| 06/20/2022 00:38:11 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | OK next same bat time same bat channel? |
| 06/20/2022 00:37:54 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | yes, went fast |
| 06/20/2022 00:37:45 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | Icebreakers, they're not just for parties any more |
| 06/20/2022 00:37:45 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Good chatter tonight |
| 06/20/2022 00:37:22 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Yep, the head doth nod |
| 06/20/2022 00:37:12 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Ther's always an icebreaker car sitting in the yard here too. |
| 06/20/2022 00:37:00 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | I can see it is quitting time |
| 06/20/2022 00:36:50 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | still here? |
| 06/20/2022 00:36:19 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | I can see why CP had substantial ice breakers on their engines |
| 06/20/2022 00:31:47 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Flett in winter |
| 06/20/2022 00:29:41 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | https://youtu.be/6LLwKJ6Gg6o |
| 06/20/2022 00:27:32 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | There's a lot of fractured rock, so the icicles got pretty huge |
| 06/20/2022 00:27:02 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | That tunnel |
| 06/20/2022 00:26:56 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Our retired Club engineer has stories of tag |
| 06/20/2022 00:25:43 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | I save pix of rock faces whenever I find them |
| 06/20/2022 00:25:29 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | I thought about doing a micro layout with a couple of 2-ton dump cars and a battery locomotive a few years back |
| 06/20/2022 00:24:26 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | interior of Flett tunnel |
| 06/20/2022 00:24:17 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | That's cool |
| 06/20/2022 00:24:15 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | I have plenty of foam to practice on and I expect things to not look good at the start |
| 06/20/2022 00:23:36 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | Picture posted by RoninID: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/66/d0/ae/66d0ae5cb538aa75d17c80a214256fcf.jpg |
| 06/20/2022 00:22:47 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | But I have no desire to make an avocation into a vocation |
| 06/20/2022 00:22:23 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | I just plug along experimenting and if it doesn't work I'll rip it out |
| 06/20/2022 00:21:22 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | I hear you |
| 06/20/2022 00:20:25 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Like other decomposing stuff |
| 06/20/2022 00:20:13 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Glad it's not painted brown lol |
| 06/20/2022 00:19:35 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | somewhat resembles decomposing granite, but also like wontons or dumplings, lol |
| 06/20/2022 00:19:32 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Just the leapfrog from one well-heeled customer to the next I guess |
| 06/20/2022 00:18:39 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | how these guys gain prominence in the hobby is beyond me |
| 06/20/2022 00:18:36 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | https://traindameblog.files.wordpress.com/2017/08/d.jpg?w=645&h=891 |
| 06/20/2022 00:18:24 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | Oh well |
| 06/20/2022 00:18:01 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | on slopes perpendicular to track |
| 06/20/2022 00:17:43 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | will have to refresh my memory |
| 06/20/2022 00:17:35 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | keep the angles flatter than 30° and greater than 60° or so |
| 06/20/2022 00:17:05 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | There's a somewhat highly regarded custom layout builder out there whose rock work looks like piled fieldstone |
| 06/20/2022 00:16:26 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | it just looks like crudely carved ceiling tiles stack on each other |
| 06/20/2022 00:16:02 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | I've never seen a real slope that looked anything like the ceiling tile modeling done by some guys |
| 06/20/2022 00:15:42 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | You mean like actual layout tunnels? Lol |
| 06/20/2022 00:15:16 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | and avoid any plane that would obviously fail in real life, lol |
| 06/20/2022 00:14:45 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | I want to include at least 3 sets of joint planes to make the faces interesting |
| 06/20/2022 00:10:34 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | yes, good hardrock country around here |
| 06/20/2022 00:09:42 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | If you look down this page for 'Heron Bay Sub Footnotes' you'll find the rockfall detector notes http://www.multimodalways.org/docs/railroads/companies/CP/CP%20ETTs/CP%20Northern%20Ontario%20SA%20ETT%20%2310%2011-1-2002.pdf |
