Man, It's hard to believe some of the stupid things people do. How hard is it to see a school bus, or a kid in the street?

Be it a school bus or a rolling ball, I'm always on the lookout for kids getting into the street while I'm driving. Bikes too. My kid sister was hit by a car chasing a ball when we were little. Thankfully the driver saw the ball first and slammed on the binders! Just tapped her and knocked her over. Could have been so much worse had he not seen the ball and acted quick!

People need to slow it down, and I'm not just talking about driving.

Re: My Facetruck thread.

That's amazing, isn't it? My grandfather had an International Farm-all 200, one of the old red tricycle tractors that were common back when. I saw him start it a few times with the hand crank when the battery was low. He would have loved that set up. It would be interesting to see the engineering behind that and an explanation of how it works. First thought is it must be a lower compression diesel than what we are used to.

Re: My Facetruck thread.

The wife and I took the AMTRAK from LA to Flagstaff, AZ and back when we took a trip to the Grand Canyon. My first and only train ride, if I have anything to say about it. I could sleep OK on a Navy ship in bad seas and/or launching aircraft, but not on that train. Maybe that was because one never gets enough sleep when works in the engine room.

Re: My Facetruck thread.

been on a few train rides, narrow gauge mountain tours in colorado as a kid, incline railways down the royal gorge and up pikes peak, all lots of fun..

we took the train back to la from kc couple of years ago and it was great, kids had a blast.. 2 rooms across from each other with four beds so everyone could lay down and see out both sides of the train..

took the kids up to oxnard for the polar express train ride year or two ago and it was a lot of fun too..

I love trains, dad had an ho layout and I started at an early age collecting mine.. had a two layer 4x8 table my dad made for me and still have all my engines and cars.. also have some little n gauge stuff left somewhere in those boxes

even still have an old 3 rail a/c lionel set I got when I was around 11-12yo

Did you try it? I just noticed a couple weeks ago that there's one a few towns south of me, and the menu looked pretty good.
