    I imagine it's similar, if not also found in and maintained by the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

    The black hole is about to suck you in and spit you out a totally new creation.

    Bad news, you WILL get to start all over again.

    Where's the hover cars. I though in 2015 we'd have hover cars?

    One thing I learned...if you break a fuel crane...just throw the ^$&(^^%$%^$## thing in the trash !! The frustration of trying to glue it back together will drive ya over the edge !!!!!

    The breakage seems to be quite normal for these - I'm on my second pair and one of them broke - I've been able to glue them successfully though...but you sire need to be careful handling them.

    Well there goes the train budget. You will be lucky to get out of there with your tidy whiteys and flip flops.

    Yikes. We had no idea you had that kind of money to burn. If I'd have known, I'd have made you a great deal on some ocean front property in South Dakota, or a slightly used bridge.

    Rodney (Rodsup9000) got me thinking with the LED rope lights he installed.

    http://www.trainboard.com/highball/index.php?threads/feather-river-canyon-layout.91853/page-2

    I dont do EckBay but I did find some LED rope lights on Amazon...

    http://www.amazon.com/HitLights-LS5...00BXOIJMI/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

    I bought (2) 16 foot reels. Installed em today. They run along the 45 degree pieces near the ceiling that hide all the RV wiring. I have to say....I am Impressed with the amount of light I have now. I was running 12 volt LED RV lights in the light fixtures that run down the center of the ceiling. I bought cheap 12v RV bulbs...and got what I paid for...leds where burning out within the first week:confused::cry:

    I hope the rope lights last longer....(y)(y)(y)(y)(y)

    Hardest part was running wire through the bulkhead in the back of THERR RV. THE Wife helped and without her...I'ld be in a lot more pain then I am LOL :notworthy:

    Hmmm. Getting close to what some consider the "finished" stage. Better tear it all down and start over.... :)
