Re: LG products warning

If you take into account the cost against failure rate you might get another picture. I would expect better quality for the higher cost brands. LG tends to be cheaper than other brands. Which leads to the question of where they save the money. I have notice that the cheaper something is it has more...

Only a few were built after 1915 and the very last engines were built for Milwaukee Railroad in 1929. Actually the Milwaukee Roads 4 A-1 4-4-2 Atlantics were built in 1935 for the Hiawatha and when built were at first broken in by hauling freight and then went on to haul the 7 or 8 car all steel Tw...

Re: Facebook Railroad Game: Railroad Empire

The problem with Facebook, from what I've read, is that you have to dig really deep in the settings to assure yourself any real privacy. Even then it seems that Facebook seems to think they know better than you about what you actually want. The Facebook app, by default, will try to grab every iota ...

Re: 1.06 Crash in 1.04b Scenario

I think that i had a problem similar to that after i installed a lot of different mods that probbly should not have been installed together but it only affected specific maps at the start. As for it crashing 6 months after autosave im not sure why it would do that. Did you add any mod recently becau...

Re: Locomotive Smoke

Coal i assume would be fairly dark, wood mabey gray, and oil i dont know ive seen a picture of the Milwaukee Road engine 261 with grey almost white smoke and i belive it is an oil burner but i could be...
