[CBQ] Accident effects to crews

[qutlx1@aol.com]

Karl,
 
There must have been something about Waterman.
 
One nice fall evening on the Savanna-Eola w/f we were performing  the 
moving runaround of a car from FS up the hill west of town.
We nose in one the car,pull it out and shove it eastward into the  clear on 
the west end of the passing track downtown. Cut it off ,pull back out  and 
then start east on the main with train. The rear man is riding the CH  
eastward on the pass parallel to us with gravity as his locomotive. I'm a xing  
or two ahead standing in the middle of the street when this guy pulls up and  
decides he's going to go across despite my standing there. Bob Harding is  
complying with all the rules so the headlight is on,bell is ringing and 
whistle  ablowing. Since it was dusk I had my lantern with me and simply placed 
the  illuminated device on the hood of his car and asked him where he 
thought he  was going. He decided to let the CH and the train pass on by.
