Can we just show it on our smart phones? I mean, who uses a printer any more?
I represent that remark. Sniff. You kids always have your nose buried in some sort of device. What's in there? :wink:

Of course! I love model train shows. :)

However, I suspect that on Sunday, December 7, there's a very good possibility that I will be 6000+ feet up in the Rockies photographing trains. :D

Well... why don't you c'mon down to the club and do some youtube videos of trains in action? You railfan everything else but the Michigan and Western! C'mon down sometime! Tuesdays are your best bet. I am down there most Thursdays after 3 as well.

JT has been to the club plenty of times. Unfortunately now we can't play model trains and go get great BBQ at Up In Smoke afterwards. :(

Hmmmm, I must've not been there. I am there constantly. Oh well. Must've just missed them.

You've probably seen me but didn't know it was me. I often wear disguises. :)

Well say Hi. I like meeting local railfans and fellow Youtubers alike. :) You gotta take me to some good MQT places so I can get some good MQT footage.

Well one day you met me in Hobby Recycling a few months back and I commented on your Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey video on youtube cause I kinda got in your shot. I use MQT1223 for almost everything I can. I also saw you when you were down talking to railfans at Union Station industrial park. I was inspecting the gate and signal while the circus train was blocking the crossing. Me and my buddy did some walking around on that crossing. I bet you know who I am more then you realize. But C'mon down to the West Michigan Model Railroad Club. I will be down there this Tuesday before 6:00 pm like I usually am and maybe this Thursday after 3:00 pm. Or you can say hi to the guys from 6 to 8 pm on Tuesdays during the weekly openhouse. Since I have class I can't attend anymore until things change.

I mean, I did roll some video of the circus train, but it was in Three Rivers and it hasn't left my hard drive. But alas, he's definitely thinking of you. Yup, big difference (not only size, but age). :)
