Don't laugh while waiting for the Challenger in Elmhurst Il this June
we had a guy pull up with a cowboy caddilac that had a "rooftop AC unit" that disguised the 3 chime horn mounted on the roof, he even had a set of electric marker lamps mounted to rear of the cab.

Given that others have such big signature banners, maybe it's really purely bad luck to be pulled over and getting a warning for "overspeeding" by 16pix. When obviously there are banners/photo sigs that even exceed way beyond 450pixels wide or/and 120pixels high.

...You only go railfanning to get pics to use as repaint material.
...You have your own 'system' for installing new equipment (down to an exact science
...You now consider some MSTS models to be more impressive than their $2000 brass counterparts
...You now secretly think 'conventional' model railroading is 'backwards' (I still have my N-scale stuff though)
...A computer upgrade is on your x-mas list...just to squeze a few more FPS.

Your driving in your car...
1. When you are about to "depart," you blow your wistle (horn) twice.2. When approaching another road intersection you blow the --.- wistle. (crossing)3. When nearing the destination, blow the -... wistle, which symbolizes that you are stopping at the next station station.4. When slowng down at the destination, sound your horn like the --. wistle, used to show you are approaching the station.5. If you need to warn someone, sound your horn in like -. which is the warning wistle.I agree with all other ideas too! Its a good thing I'm only 13, or I'd might be guilty of some of these things my self! - stands for long blast of wistle

Your wife knows what a Big Boy is...You're worried about getting an e-mail from Nels asking where the latest review is because you spend more time playing with it than writing...You wish that FS2002 and TrainSim were compatable so you could do fly-bys of your favorite trains in aircraft matching the era of the train you're driving and you start thinking about the great screenshots you could make and how neat it would be to take the commuter train to the airport and fly a Leer to Port Ogden and land there and take another train across the mountains to another airport and then fly a Seaplane over Marias Pass to get a great view of a brace of Dash-9's struggling up the mountain and land in the Columbia River where you would pick up the Seattle route and drive a set of SD40-2's then take a cross-country flight in a 747 to Baltimore and ride the NEC to Boston and fly Trans-Atlantic to engineer a Scotsman on a modern day excursion and then take off again for a half-way-around-the world trip to ride the trains in Japan and leave there for a flight to California for a visit on the Tehachipi and Cajon and then take the Super Chief over Raton to Denver with a connecting ride to the Georgetown loop and then a Cessna flight into Cumbres for a ride around the Narrow Gauge Loop to complete the best vacation that your wife never saw you...ER, never mind...Rob

You almost run out of road by not using the foot brake..........waiting for the dynamic brake to set up.

Heres a few more:
- You wonder if the new road they are putting in will require XTracks
- You go thru a intersection without blowingf your horn, and promptly pull over to hand the controls over to your wife.
- You go past a light and wait for: " MP 34, road 1, no defects, total axles 4, speed 88."
- You anounce to riders when the next stop will be.." Next stop, Wal-Mart"
- You pull in front of your wife's work to pick her up, and wait for 1 minute to make sure there are no other riders, and then blow the horn twice before pulling away.
- After shopping, you ask for the cashier to mark down the weight to make sure you can pull the load.Festival of Trains, NRHS 2003 Convention, June 2003, Baltimore Md. www.borail.org www.nrhs.com

heh. You do what I did today:Approach a yellow light and instead of speeding up, slow down knowing full well the next one will be a red.Or, You find yourself looking for the tab key so you can see if the dispatcher will let you go through the red light you're stuck at.You wonder if you need to set the switch ahead so you can turn down your street.When pulling a trailer you wonder what the radius of the turns are and worry that your bounding box will make it bounce.You ease on the brake, waiting for the lapping to take effect.When uncoupling a trailer from your car, you look for the uncoupling lever on the side of the vehicle.

You are sitting at a red light, next to a cop and you roll down your window and ask for permission to proceed.
