Some old-time cab cookery at Thomaston on Sunday morning, fried eggs and toast. Fast food, 1930-style:

First, the toast; about 30 seconds for that, says Al G, morning fireman.

Lard, not butter. Also, much more "authentic" and "period".

One flip of the wrist and pan, then--- Let's Eat!!

Al is very good chef; he does veer towards the exotic though (his own-made kimchee, for example), and it was nice to see something more mainstream and palatable (aka "normal").

This was apparently the very first time there has been food cooked aboard Flagg Coal 75, according to John & Barney Gramling. They both enjoyed Al's creations. And John & Barney had a certain "food adventure" themselves the previous night for dinner.
