I am doing well, got overly involved with some other projects, all of which came to naught, but I'm alive and kicking.
Henley gathered dust for a few months, but a gift of a lovely coal wagon from a friend in Nebraska (they are expecting
snow tomorrow) jarred me into action.

The tram leads a coal drag near the Henley Colliery, whilst an Updown Local, or however you chaps say it, chuffs by,
left side as custom, I am told? The question is does the two wheel coach go typically upon the end of the train or up front?





Alas, no, I did not make it out to the UK this year, as I had hoped. Next year my daughter wants to see Italy, so
that shall be on the itinerary. Italy, I am confident, will be interesting, give me a chance to see some Roman stuff
up close, though I'd rather see Britain.

Good to have you back Chops. With regard to the 2 wheel coach, I guess it depends which end the loco is on.

I finally gathered myself up and cleaned up the track, and everything sprung back to life quite nicely. For a guy who doesn't care too much for hours spent refining track function, this Bachmann EZ Trak has been most helpful.

Britain can wait for now! Italy is interesting! Roman people! The only thing they seriously got wrong in the old films about Roman soldiers are the Italian accents!

I have been rather busy with other things, like struggling to make a living in our new economy,
which I am told is doing fabulously. Somehow I missed that part.

Anyways, lovely new Hornby Connie hauling a rake of Electrotren Olive Oil Wagons, the first
of which I picked up in Wales in 1976. The other train is a vintage Rural Rambler, still
rambling quite nicely, and the new Horny Buxton, which is a superb piece in every respect.

It was great fun to run, again. Been too long. Going to have to do some dust remediation.

Good to see you back Chops - Happy New Year - and I hope it's good to you

Hello Chops good to see you. Can’t access you video unfortunately.

Hello Chops. Sadly it asks me to sign up to something to view the vid, but how are you?

Think we might have snow here? I dare not look out the window! Nope. Rain.

Anyway. Good to see you!

I just get the 'Oops, something went wrong' message. The link looks like it shouldn't have the /edit on the end but removing it doesn't help.

I think the correct URL for the video is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d93hlhv ... freyMcNeal
The 'Studio' part of the original URL should be omitted. If I'm wrong please let me know ASAP
