Making My Operators More Comfortable

The crew lounge was a little more comfortable for the operators this past Sunday. I’ve had my eye on a futon at Wal-Mart for a while and when it went on sale I put it on layaway. I picked it up last week in time for the next op session on the BS&T.

It wasn’t to difficult to assemble, but I made a few errors and to had to assemble parts of it twice. Anyway, it’s quite comfortable and can be used as a bed when out of town operators visit.

The thing I liked about it the most was the lift up side tables attached to the arms.  They fold down when they are not needed.  A decent coffee table will complete the picture.

Kim bought some great pillows for it on Sunday. I’ll have to get pictures of those. They are quite appropriate.

  1. Treats and lounge …. a train may never move again

    the room is looking good.

    You’d think the promise of Kim’s treats would slow things down a bit, but I have to turn off the power when it’s break time to get the guys to go!

    The room is getting a little more comfortable at least.

    Have a great weekend!

  2. Hey a couch with a beer (woops I mean Coffee…) perch right beside you – doesnt get any better than that especially if its near the trains.

    Booze and little trains don’t mix. I was waiting for something to get broken the evening you and I visited the layout in Dartmouth. Non-alcoholic beverages are preferred on train nights.

    Later Wayne!
