[STEVEN HOLDING <sholding@sbcglobal.net>]

I hear you Lenny.  At Congress Park you always stayed on the stair from the 
tunnel till you say the bills land.  One time they stuck in the east wall of 
the 
shelter from the nail.
On the signal tests due to the delays incurred by the trains on 2nd trick Main 
Line DS in Cicero use to have the crews call him on the PBX when they went on 
duty.  At the time it was not recorded and he would tell them the weed rats 
were 
out so they would look out.  So the TM got the bright idea to use jumper cables 
to set the signal.  Only trouble is that caused a track light on the CTC panel 
and the old ones we had in Cicero you could tell the maintainer what the 
problem 
was and where it was at.  So the signal maintainer went out and got him self a 
new set of jumper cables

The westbound crews out of Galesburg would throw off their soup ticket at 
Monmouth wrapped with the lead strap of a torpedo. Their was one exception
some moron threw the soup ticket off wrapped around a fusee which still had the 
nail.
