Nov 28, 2011 - Charge ORHF? Why do you say that?
otef434 mowi:
Nov 28, 2011 - why not, it would be a nice profit center for my stocks. It's their trademarks, not yours.
otef434 mowi:
Nov 28, 2011 - I have no idea who or what an ORHF is, but they are like every other organization using a a trademarked scheme or likeness. Don't you think the owner of that has a right to be compensated?
CoasterFan2105 mowi:
Dec 17, 2011 - Dude, I seriously don't understand you. You want them to take money away from a non for profit organization because they have some equipment mainted in the SP. I don't even think they have the right to do that since ORHF is not selling their logos for money. You really think $50,000 even $100,000 is much compared to how much they make yearly? Wow...
otef434 mowi:
Dec 21, 2011 - It's their property, so why not make it another profit center? So long as it boosts my stock's value, I don't care where it comes from.
Polybun mowi:
Jan 2, 2012 - I'm so with you. Money is way more important than history. Hell, I hold steel stocks, lets scrap them out and really make a few pennies!

otef434 mowi:
Jan 10, 2012 - Naw, that aint gonna happen. Last I looked, my investments are pretty secure. If it were a logo I owned, I would absolutely make sure it's appearance is appropriate and consistent with the image I wish it to project. And if I were a D****, which I am not, don't you think I would use worse language than you have summoned up?

Jan 25, 2012 - AHH! Okay! Can the public donate $ to ORHF???
AMH9217 mowi:
Jan 25, 2012 - You people and all your money. Do me a favor won't you please??? Blow it out your ass... :)
AMH9217 mowi:
Jan 25, 2012 - Or for the new construction to the round house???
Polybun mowi:
Jan 25, 2012 - Well how about I use your name, for free, and slap it on some old obsolete piece of crap? That thing is a joke compared to modern machines and shouldn't even be allowed on the rail. I wonder if the people are aware that if that boiler lets go in their naiborhood it'll level. it.
AMH9217 mowi:
Jan 25, 2012 - I honestly don't mind if you ask me. :) It's nothing more then some letters that make up a sound. It makes no sense to charge a (non-profit) organization for a name on the side of a box car on display 95-99.9% of the time. And there are (trained) engineers out there who know boilers. They won't (PASS) a boiler test if its not safe for operations. I don't know how much you know about trains and there equipment, but for starts, you shouldn't comment on something YOUR not educated in. :)
Polybun mowi:
Jan 26, 2012 - The fact is all it takes is a few errors on the crews part and that boiler will go off like a bomb no matter how good the inspection is. It's the inevitable fate of all steam equipment. One day, sooner or later, the crown sheet will come uncovered and kaboom, people will die.
AMH9217 mowi:
Jan 26, 2012 - The fact of the matter is LOGIC. :) So, lets be straight here shall we? If a boiler can explode, (due too high pressure, or safty valves don't give, ect) so can a diesel locomotive. A SD40-2, GP38-2, a Dash 9, a SD70MAC, a ES44AC, even a SD70ACe. ANYTHING can be spontaneously explode when you look at the big picture. So, once again, PLEASE, I ask of you to not comment on these types of things until you become MORE educated in these areas. :)
AMH9217 mowi:
Jan 26, 2012 - Correction* ( ANYTHING can spontaneously explode when...)
Polybun mowi:
Jan 27, 2012 - The problem is they don't normally fail due to over pressure, they fail due to crew error. All you have to do is run the boiler low on water, which can happen for any number of reasons, including false readings at sight glass, and kaboom. One mistake on the crews part and hundreds can die if that thing lets go in a populated area. Sounds like you are the one that needs an education.
AMH9217 mowi:
Jan 27, 2012 - Like you said, "...crew error..." it can happen with anything besides a steam engine. :)
Polybun mowi:
Jan 27, 2012 - The difference is, crew error on a diesel electric doesn't level 2 or 3 city blocks in the blast.
otef434 mowi:
Feb 19, 2012 - I am so shocked that out of over 10,000 words, that is all you can muster. I bet you know how to better express yourself.

Nov 13, 2011 - The building process for the new Roundhouse has begun. Groundbreaking was on the 21st. That equipment was moved to NW Portland because there was not enough room for it at Brooklyn anymore, as some track removal and yard clean up had started. There also is no current room for this equipment at the new roundhouse.
