I do read most all the threads, but I barely drag around enough to do any entries. Tomorrow I see the Urologist, to see if I go to Dallas for a consultation on my bladder; surgery or treatment. At nite I'm fortunate. I wake up 6-7 times to go, but during the day diapers are handy because I get 3-5 second notice before........psssst.
I have a question too. I was showing my GS and his fiance' how my Challenge ran.Ran good until it took a swan dive 37" to the concrete. About 15 years ago I took my Big Boy apart and reworked it, but now I shake so much I'm afraid to check the guts of this. It looks decent enough, EXCEPT, the front trucks have dropped down, and what looks like a small block fits up into the boiler, but won't go. Does anyone know the guts of this 4-6-6-4 boiler that can tell me if there's a way to fit it back in? Or will it take major surgery? Nothing appears broken that I can see, but that don't mean diddley squat.
I don't remember all, but guys and wives are in my prayers even tho I don't say so.
