Anyone Up For a Emergency Durand Meet?
Anyone Up For a Emergency Durand Meet?
Hey guys,
Would anyone want to head to Durand on October 31st for a meet? With the new diamond going in, in 2-3 weeks I would like to see the diamond at Durand one last time! No more slamming, sparks or cars nearly hoping the tracks! I will miss that exitement, and I think some people are in the same boat as me! This new diamond will offically change Durand for a long time!
Yes, I know it is just a diamond but this is changing Durand train watching. I also know Durand is slow!
I am planning on going to Durand on the 31st anyway.
I know this may be stupid to some people.
MORE FOR PEOPLE THAT CARE! I know some people dont care, and that is okay. I understand where you are coming from.

Re: Anyone Up For a Emergency Durand Meet?
Oh for petes sake. Durand isn't the only diamond in Michigan.
It will be safer with a new diamond in place. Hasnt anyone ever noticed the amount of debris scattered along the rails.

Re: Anyone Up For a Emergency Durand Meet?
...and we didn't even confirm that the new diamond is a high speed diamond anyways (I don't think).
Re: Anyone Up For a Emergency Durand Meet?
Who cares what type of diamond it is..it is being replaced..and thats what is it important. I will see about the 31st.

Re: Anyone Up For a Emergency Durand Meet?
I believe that I do have actual confirmation. I was told by a person that was at Durand and looking at the diamonds themselves. I trust this person because everything he has told me has been true in the past.LSRC wrote:...and we didn't even confirm that the new diamond is a high speed diamond anyways (I don't think).

Just in DRD and the parts that are assembled and laying around are looking to be a flange bearing high speed noiseless diamond.

Re: Anyone Up For a Emergency Durand Meet?
Talking about the diamond too much??? Nooo.....lol. Maybe a little, but don't sulk, we still like you! And don't feel responsible for the changes were/are being made because of a number of things that have gone on recently. See my reply to your message in the Derand dimund thred.
Re: Anyone Up For a Emergency Durand Meet?
Don't worry about it. Just laugh along with us. As far as the changes that Zack made read the description of the new board...I'm one of the factors toward the changes made. You may not know this but I received an award for most irrelevant posts this year and I've vowed to keep the award. Pat C got most immature and I'm trying to win that one too but he's tough to beatbnsfben wrote:Alright, I am sorry to anyone who thinks I am talking too much about the diamond.
