I meant to ask last night if anyone wanted to go to see Me and You and Everyone We Know with Crux and I tomorrow. Instead, a video controller was thrust in my hand, Halo was played, drinks drunk, Twister and scantily-clad ladies and... well... I forgot. If anyone goes, we (well, I at least, assuming C can make it) will be at E Street Cinema for the 2:25 show, as far as I know right now.
Nice to see everyone last night... who was there by 12:30. Kinda had to scoot then. Bit of a headache today, naturally, but not too worse for party-wear. Yeah, I'm at work! 5 hours o' sleep was no less than what I had for working Thursday, anyway...
Here are some pics of the biggest of the big in trains. I was going through a railroad book at work, and apparently the Allegheny H-8 trains were the most powerful and heavy locomotives ever built (unless the "Big Boy" line was; there is some dispute over actual weights... and it's a bit hard to measure the difference between 375 and 389 tons by putting a train on your bathroom scale), and were used locally by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. One of the types was even dubbed The Virginian. Pics might be too wide for this Journal because they are BIG trains (but they're in my Pics):
a Virginian from C&O
an Allegheny model train
#1604, a C&O Allegheny residing at the B&O Museum in Baltimore
another Allegheny
I have to say of all the things that are entirely environmentally terrible on the planet, these are a few of my faves (along with '70s muscle cars with candyflake paint jobs, mag wheels, hood scoops, and awful gas mileage).
