    You mean you didn't lay on the roadbed and film it?  WIMP!  :lol:

    On the serious side - GREAT little video.  

    Some of those bottoms looked a bit close to the roadbed!

    This was with my Canon T7i.  Supposed to be 25 feet from tracks, but one more step back I’da fallen off a cliff!

    Neptune on a belly board!  That made me cringe!  GoPro on the roadbed?

    Great video, thanks.

    I laid a Nikon P610 in video mode on the chat.  Turned on movie mode before the train crossed the bridge, then got off the tracks.

  3. Agreed on the scammers.  Wife has been wanting a new pup, we’ve run across at least three “breeders” that were highly suspicious.  One put his pups on someone else’s Facebook page, others steal photos and place on their pages.  I’ve seen the same pup on more than one website.  All offer way low prices, and keep going lower if you back off. 
    If you do a Google search for the breed you want, be highly suspicious of any websites with the words adorable or precious.

  4. I recently downloaded CoinSnap on my phone.  Going through some pennies and found two ‘43 steels.  But one of them is missing the 4 in 1943.  It is there, but very very faint. Would that be a bad stamping?  Or someone trying to make a fake?

  5. Here in small town Oklahoma emergency vehicles often have to wait for over an hour for tracks to clear. Either wait or drive an extra 8 or so miles to get around.

    The BNSF line that roughly parallels I-35 causes issues in just about every town it goes through.

    Not so much from a single train, but when one is on a siding waiting for another to pass on the main line.

    Some of the towns started issuing citations to any train that blocked highways for more than 15 minutes, but that didn’t work out.  

  6. I recently found some old REM-UMC cartridges with a hollow point bullet.  Figgered they were 125 grain, since I remember seeing them for sale.  Since all the primers were dented, I pulled the bullets and they averaged 164.6, so I assume they were marketed as 165 grain.  They had approx 31 grains of a stick powder.

    Anyone remember such a load, and how long ago they were made?

    This website list a 165 grain bullet, but doesn’t say hollow point:

    They removed Cactus Jack Slade so here is Evil Roy Slade in its place

     

     

    (Here is just a goofy fun movie. Kirk Douglas' last western.   In case it doesn't jump out at you,  it's a parity of the cartoon series Coyote and Roadrunner.  Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Handsome Stranger - wearing a costume like the Lone Ranger except no mask.  Ann Marriott plays Charming Jones.  Jack Elam and a dozen other characters we all know are in it.)

    The Villain is the movie WC was referring to with Kirk Douglas as Cactus Jack Slade.  Here's a link to it:
