I’m on Twitter!
I’m on Twitter now, under the rather unimaginative name of BP814. I’m trying to come up with a better username, but this one will have to do for now.
These blog posts should appear on my Twitter account. I just signed up for twitterfeed.com.

I just opened a store on Zazzle.com. I’ve posted some train products on there, including shirts, a hat, a mug, postage stamps, and a poster print. You can customize most of the products before you order them. Check it out!
RailDriver and Rail Simulator
RailDriver now supports Rail Simulator. Download the RailDriver software here. Rail Simulator also has a couple updates that I should install. It looks like it is time to get the RailDriver out again and start driving trains!

261 Sighting
The Milwaukee Road 261 came through Norwood Young America today. I can’t show you any pictures, as I didn’t have my camera with me. They had a few passenger cars (including the Cedar Rapids), but no passengers. I’m assuming this was a “test run” to make sure everything is working. I found their shop blog online. It talks about some of the work they have been doing on the 261 and the rolling stock. It also mentions a first fire-up in early May … so I think that is what I saw today.
I was fortunate to be outside to hear the steam whistle, and I got to the grade crossing just in time!
Movable Type
I have upgraded this blog to Movable Type 4. Let me know if you see any problems!
