  • Rememberance Day / Veterans Day

    Click image for larger version Name: 5a1cbf090cfba4.1675174715118333530532.png Views: 17 Size: 102.1 KB ID: 2290281 On this Eleventh Day of the Eleventh Month, in the United States we honor our Veterans. Worldwide, many nations celebrate Remembrance Sunday, which this year falls on Sunday, November 12th.

    From the trenches to the oceans, islands, and deserts, Veterans answered the call when your country asked.

    You fought to protect our values, and paid a heavy price in doing so. Many continue to pay the price.

    Today, we remember those who fell in service and honor those who returned home.

    I hope you'll take a moment to reflect on the sacrifices of veterans and their families. Let us also recommit ourselves to contributing to a more peaceful world where all people can live free from fear, violence, persecution, retribution and tyranny.

      They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
      Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
      At the going down of the sun and in the morning
      We will remember them.

      For the Fallen

      Lest We Forget, for which ever country those are from who have gone, that have given all for us.

  • Run8 Studios South Fork Secondary
    by eric

    Run 8 Studios announces a new route for v3 -- the Norfolk Southern South Fork Secondary.

    Along its course up to each of these mines, there is a...

    by eric

    Happy Thanksgiving! I know we've got a lot to be thankful for in our household, and I hope everyone gets a chance to spend some time with those they care about and celebrate the good things in their lives.

    To celebrate fall a little late, I've been having some fun in the Upper Peninsula on MLT's Michigan Iron Ore route, which I've been meaning to pick up for a while.

    It's my idea of a perfect route -- not too large, and one where you can spend as little or as long as you...

  • Riding the Milwaukee Road... Sort of.
    by eric

    This week, I got to combine two of my hobbies.... Off-roading and railroads.

    I've written before about some of our ATV rides in Tennessee, and we recently acquired a four seat Honda Pioneer 700 UTV to add to our off-road "toy collection".

    For those who have no idea ATV/UTV means... a "traditional" ATV (all-terrain vehicle) is a three or four-wheeler with handle bar steering and a motorcycle style saddle seat. A UTV (utility-trail vehicle) has a steering...
