@  Matt M. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:59 PM) as do i Paulo lol. got a website for all the pictures i have taken and my friends even send me their pics to be on my site
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:59 PM) If I don't make it as a fire safety engineer or firefighter, I am going in to trains! Lol
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:58 PM) I have a huge love for trains...
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:58 PM) I see
@  Matt M. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:56 PM) we had a train hit a guy a couple months ago. once the railroad police got there they released the helper set and sent them back up the mountain to a refueling station. they didn't hold the train there on the scene or anything
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:55 PM) Well you're a smaller island, our trains are interstate and international :P
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:52 PM) Have*
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:52 PM) All our trains are passengers only
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:52 PM) I see, we never that problem
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:51 PM) Uknwn if injuries on the train
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:51 PM) Train Vs UNoccupied car
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:51 PM) Yes sir
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:45 PM) There was a decent HAZMAT fire years back when one derailed, that was before my time in the service though
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:45 PM) I don't work in an area with a train anymore so I don't know how it works. I know when I did CCAN work during certain times we had to reroute around train crossings but other than that not much experience with em
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:43 PM) Shhh, dont tell Bruce...
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:43 PM) Don't trains hitting people/cars always result in trains getting stopped out there until the scene is mapped out and cleaned up?
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:42 PM) lol
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:41 PM) @Paulo R. ...
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:40 PM) sounds like a gang ridden san fran
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:39 PM) I guess it will be 9 hours after all
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:39 PM) apparently it's pretty significant
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:38 PM) Yeah, we're stopped
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:38 PM) We also have road trains, its like 3 buses connected to eachother, but they have a special lane, with barriers on both sides, so nothing really happens around public transport
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:37 PM) If it's elevated that'd be a bit more difficult
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:36 PM) doubled the wrong letter there haha
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:36 PM) school*
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:36 PM) never had person VS train here, and I take every day to scholl
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:35 PM) person vs train is a common suicide technique
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:34 PM) in populated areas, if its out of the way there are crossings
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:34 PM) its fairly new to, its only 5 or 6 years old
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:34 PM) most of ours around here though go over roads rather than across
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:34 PM) @Bruce our train system is elevated
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:34 PM) whoops misread that
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:33 PM) we have crossings here too, but people are stupid and try and beat em from time to time
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:33 PM) @Paulo R. how do cars get across the tracks?
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:33 PM) most action you get on a train, is a shooting at one of the stations or something
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:32 PM) oh, I see... we dont have rail crossings here, so that never happens
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:31 PM) nope, the southbound one... you better believe if mine did I;d be out and on scene faster than you could say bazinga
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:28 PM) Bruce, your train hit a car?!?!?!?!?!
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:28 PM) okay...
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:28 PM) Dang vehicle vs train....
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:28 PM) heh no thanks
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:26 PM) @Dakota If you want, I can give you some, if you pay the shipping to Ohio, you can have em! :P
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:25 PM) I also have a ton of Bionicle stuff I never used...
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:25 PM) maybe once I get a bookshelf I can put some back out
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:24 PM) I have no room for LEGOs anymore, they're packed up for now
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:23 PM) I have so many bricks, colored ones that are just useless, its the best way to, minimize
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:22 PM) I've put red bricks in to fill up some space in my medevac
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:21 PM) we don't all have the luxury of thousands of colors to choose from :P
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:21 PM) Dakota gets it! haha
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:21 PM) yeah, you wont see them though, at all, the apparatus floor will have tiles over it, so its just there
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:20 PM) how else can you use up those bricks?
@  Dakota : (May 22 2013 @ 07:20 PM) if nobody sees it I don't see why not
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:19 PM) bit not always multi colored
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:18 PM) lol, all great builds have filler bricks in them, its like an illusion, looks great from the outside, but simple from the inside
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:17 PM) still, multi colored... Eww
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:16 PM) lol, you wont see the multi colors, the station will be over it, with nice tan and grey modern colors :D
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:15 PM) eww multi colored
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:11 PM) I think I will do it in black, and then the inside multi-colored filler bricks.
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:11 PM) Its just I want it to look like a display piece, so I will add the modified 1x1 bricks, with a tile and letter on it, to have the stations name at the bottom
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:09 PM) Using allot of plates.... lol
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:08 PM) @Paulo R. how?
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:07 PM) I think I am going to have to build my own base then...
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:06 PM) yeah and the large grey is 48x48
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:04 PM) hmm, I think yeah, and the smaller one is 16??? Laying out a new station in my head lol
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 07:02 PM) is it 32x32
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:01 PM) the large green one
@  Paulo R. : (May 22 2013 @ 07:01 PM) hey, do you by any chance know the dimensions of a base plate, stud wise
@  Bruce : (May 22 2013 @ 06:59 PM) Paulo, hey
