G'morning Flopps! I bought the game when I woke up but haven't fired it up. I'm 75 and was IT tech in the stoneage: Carrier Pidgeons, Hot Air Ballons and Semaphores,. Not sure where to start building track, just want an easy set of tracks to watch my trains. Had a terrific train set as a kid and have loved trains, I knew my great grandfather born 1859 and he was a conductor on a train from 1879, He passed away in 1960. Loved to laugh.
@@Flopps-ys9jj I'll give it a shot. I have 2 hours if I can't make sense of it I'll ask for a refund. If I was 25 years younger no sweat but as an old goat it gets tough. Yes, great grandpa had stories. He got his left elbow caught in a coupling, crushed it so they set his elbow at a 45 degree angle and the bones meshed and he could use his left elbow always at 45degres.. Two trains on same track one a passenger one a freight, he switched ithe line of the passenger but swinginging it back cowcatcher of freiigt got him threw him over the engine into the coal car broken back, They put him in a rocking chair for 3 years and he was fine. They'd stop on trestles if the crabbing was good so passngers ould crab!
I look forward to your next video. About great grandpa. I had to bunk in his room when at my grandparents. I went to bed early and he'd come uo turn on a small lamp and smother his chest in Vicks Vaporub and Noxema, can't stand the smell of either to this day. He loved Laurel and Hardy movies, would just watch and laugh. He worked every day in my grandparents yard until one day he didn't wake up at age 101, his sister born 1865 lived until 1968! I apologise for the typo's Flopps!
Up until Alan Sloan of GM put Kettering n charge of the locomoiive diviionson Presidents of Rai;road co,panies wen and ordered their lovcomotives thus the huge amout of iverse locomotives BUT Kettering developed the deisel locmotive and would only produduce 2. A yard shuntter and a long hauler for 50k ach very cheap compared to original prices of 250k. Thus we ended upwith boxy ugly locomovives! My name is like rake but an f instead of a k thus rafe!
Great episode Flopps! Thank you!
