[CBQ] Torpedos

[qutlx1@aol.com]

Archie,
 
What a great story ! I'm still chuckling.
 
Leo,  I remember the night our trainmaster and road foreman of  engines  
called us on the radio and told us to stop at the next station  for a  
butt chewing.  We had passed their vehicle parked in the  weeds at  
track speed when they said we should be at restricted speed  because of  
the guns or torpedoes we had hit.  Which we had not  heard we claimed.   
They later returned to the place they had put  down the torpedoes and  
found them right where they had left them on  the passing track.  We  
would have never heard this part, but the  road foreman was the father  
of our local chairman and he fessed up at  Sunday dinner.  The moral of  
this story is stick to your  guns.  Archie
