Reply to "What did you do on your layout today?"

Yesterday I said I was going to go fishing before I painted the second coat on the steel girder bridge. Let’s go fishing.

Before refrigerated cars, The railroads used to pay hunters and fishermen to bring fresh food to the passenger cars at predetermined stops.

“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” • OK • “Go fishing before you work on your train layout and you will have a fish sandwich for lunch”.

2 Paint can

I am using Silver Rust-Oleum, an oil based paint. Also have an empty can of sweet peas and paint thinner to clean out the brush. Yes; I like sweet peas and fish.
