IM BACK!!!!!!

Mon Sep 8, 2008, 8:04 AM
Ok, so the past 9 weeks have been pretty awesome!! Ive learned a lot, including how to operate Backhoes, Dozers, Skidsteers(ie Bobcats) Front End Loaders, Scrapers (though i hated that beast) Excavators, Compactors, and Motor Graters. On top of that, Ive learned (not that I didnt know already) how to read advanced blueprints, Shooting Grade(surveying), and into soil knowledge. So now Im going to have to find a job. Not a joyous thought, but its something I need to get to. ON a lighter note, I recieved for my birthday from my wife Three new Engines. One is a Blueline Southern GP9, with sound! That is awesome. Also got a KATO SD45 Santa Fe Engine(she didnt know that I deal with the East, but its still an awesome engine none the least) And an older Athearn SW900(I think thats what it is) Maybe I can put a picture up and someone can tell me what it is exactly (she got it at a Train show, so it was not in its original packaging) I took of the handrails and Lackawanna decals off so its all black currently. Ok, So I will let you all go, and Hope to hear from you all. I will if you havent seen already post some pics from school up!

Welcome back :nod: ~ you learned an awful lot. When one of my grand nephews was two-years old he would get upset because I wouldn't know the difference between a backhoe and a payloader :giggle:

Welcome back and congrats on completing the training. So when are you going to start working on the new trans con rail line from seattle Wa. to Anchorage, AK?

Some days you wake up and immediately start to worry. Nothing in particular is wrong, it's just the suspicion that forces are aligning quietly and there will be trouble.

Wow, is that a real project? Dont know if I want to work in such a rugged condition though?
