Or was it Ralph Thilbert?  It's hard to remember names when you only worked the 
job for one weeks vacation.  I do remember sleeping in the back room of the 
depot.  I also remember how well it paid.  Seems every time we switched on the 
other RRs tracks we were paid 1 hour or actual time at overtime rate.  This 
could happen several times per shift.  The regular crew called them tips.  The 
job went to work at 3 am and as I recall made a turn at Denrock and returned to 
Sterling.  In my old timebook we were usually off duty around noon.  The 
conductor on the job was Mike Tadie who later lost his life right behind the 
depot at Denrock.  Back to the pay, legend has it that the Sterling job was the 
highest paying job on the CB&Q in the 60s.  Archie

  Ralph Deverage or something like that. I remember he was a big gambler and 
carried a roll in his shirt pocket that would choke a horse. I also remember he 
fell asleep a couple of times and ran over the derail where the Q came onto the 
C&NW as I recall. 42 years can cloud up a mind. Archie
