What is PTE?

The Paper Train Express is a blog, run by Eric Riccy and Dyland.

"Why visit?" you should be asking.

PTE gets updated with new posts!*
Every post has a picture/video! (Every picture comes from either the internet or made by Eric Riccy, PTE is non-profitable and claims no ownership on pictures/videos taken from the internet...)
Each post is about the goings on of Eric Riccy, Dyland, or music in some way.. or whatever else we can think to post.
Feel free to read 'em, comment at us for making them, and continue reading em, until there's no new posts to read! 
Or until PTE shuts down, of course.

*Posting rate may vary.

Other features of this infamous bandwidth waster is the other pages! 
Posts is where every post is made, and is the part that gets the whenever+* update.
What is PTE? is the page you're currently on!

Things [Characters, Holidays, Etc.]

Cafe-chan -"IT'S DEAD" -PJ
A forum made in 2009 using the "Ib4f" (image board 4 free) service. The service was shut down due to other forums being used for illicit activities. While existent, Cafe-chan was infamously terrible with zero traffic. It's slogan was "Still wasting bandwidth!". PTE is jokingly said to be the successor of it.

Internetwork Day - March 18, Commemorates the creation date of the original Internetwork. Sometimes celebrated as it led to the creative boom that led to the Ric-Olzow characters, the creation of Ric-Olzow Music, Jenny Series and more.

Jenny Boliparte - Character of Eric Riccy. Brunette woman with blue hoodie and long ponytail. ("She looks really boring" - Anonymous, 2015)

Amy Raasolae - Character of Eric Riccy. Blonde wavy-haired woman often in a red sweater.

Ric Olzow - Character of Eric Riccy. Quite literally, as he plays a double role of being a stand-alone character and of representing Eric Riccy when applicable. Is portrayed as brown haired with green eyes, wearing a grey jacket with green shirt.

Taylor Poshibole - Character of Eric Riccy. Blonde woman with hair that typically goes over one eye. Often seen in a green sweater, sometimes wearing glasses.

Tino Jackson Dude - Character of Eric Riccy. Spiky black haired man with sunglasses. The epitome of coolness. ("What a cool dude" - Ric's mom, )

Tim Junt - Character of Eric Riccy. Black haired man with green sweater with a '7' on it. (The 7 is for his supposed creation date. Despite this, the date is constantly forgotten anyway.)

Amy Day - November 22, character birthday of Amy Raasolae, which is the day that marks the approximate creation date of Amy Raasolae. All other character birthdays referred below refer to actual or approximate creation dates.

Jenny Day -  December 12, character birthday of Jenny Boliparte. Due to its overlap with a more important day, it is always overshadowed and forgotten.

TayDay - May 9, character birthday of Taylor Poshibole. Pulling "Shenanigans" is considered the appropriate celebration tactic.

Tino Day - June 28, coincidentally 1 day after Sunglasses Day. Character birthday of Tino Jackson Dude.

Tim Day - March 7, Character birthday of Tim Junt. Constantly forgotten and mixed up with Taylor's birthday. Missed every year since being decided in 2011.

K-Day (December 23) - A magical holiday. Nobody knows what the K stands for ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
No connection to the Edmonton Event.

Endless 8 (August -31) -

Brutal Week - A particularly stressful or unlucky week. Depending on the events that occur, the nicknames for each day go as followed: Melancholy Monday, Turbulent Tuesday, Wrathful Wednesday, Toxic Thursday, Fatality Friday, Shattering Saturday, Somber Sunday. 
In these modern times, Brutal Weeks have become moot, as the years themselves have taken the title.
