I can niether confurm nor deny said derailment.
This is not the Spork you're looking for........
And as far as I have been told, the units did not plow potates, but the cars did. Must have been a new drone pilot. I thought we asked them to take care of the infernal combustion upfront...... | |

Ok, you lost me there. All I can say is that I can neither confirm nor deny that nuke-cue-lar anything was aboard at the time,... but the units were powered conventionally. | |

A funny for you.....I think the Pan Am crew was nervous because it CRAWLED into Gardner and 22K was literally seconds behind it..... The detector goes off for the BOMO and at the end it says "movement too slow" Me and about 15 guys there started roaring with laughter | |

Hi All........... We know the Pennsylvania RR unit will be on display for the 2013 railroad expo next week. Is there any news what other units may be there? Last year there was a couple PanAm units. Distant rumors have a Geep and slug as well as a new CSX unit. Any one hear anything besides rumors. Ted

Marine.....we are hearing many things right now. We can't even seem to get clear info on the power for the excursion. Now the rumor is that 77 is joining the fray, which I think is Horsecrap. It runs like crap, looks like crap, and they have a standing policy for it to be DIT on the mainline....maybe a photo op in EDY? MAYBE. But not in the excursion train......the GP40 and Slug from NECR....yes i have heard that. G&W has to be represented! | |
