PS: Please start your own threads to:
- slander crews
- complain that CPR doesn't have a detailed schedule posted
- accuse them of hating children
- ask Ross Rowland if this is related to the Greenbrier
- discuss the dangers of Canadian chasers
- wonder why CSX allows this to happen
- start rumors it will be at Scranton's Labor Day fest to send #2317 off in style
- create incredible tales of all night welding and fabrication work
- critique workers in RailPic.net images
- get banned from RYPN

did I get them all?

I sure hope some day they bring 2816 South, before the big horsey eats the little logging rodent....I was working "around" this engine as it was prepped to head home..
