Wintonian D. Hogger quipped:

...Please use the correct designation. SW1500. Why?...

Because foamers know more than you do. Wink wink, nudge nudge.

...I ran them over a 41 year period and I'll reserve the right to call them 
whatever I want...

Wow! You started running trains when you were one year old??? BN really _was_ 
desperate for hoggers back in the '70s!

...The BN 305 that I ran the most has SW15 stenciled on its frame, not SW1500 
... Besides it saves me typing two zero's...

Early retirement, here you come! Remember, the electrons you saved money on may 
be your own!

WDH, did you ever work with a BN guy by the name of Al Krug? He was a really 
nice, friendly guy from out your way. Started out as minion to Al Perlman or 
something, then caused the PC to go belly up and fled to Wyoming. Apparently 
the ICC never caught on to his financial shenanigans.

commenting on the irony of bemoaning 'Feeders at the public trough' on a list 
devoted to a land grant railway!"
