Dang, I've been deleting this thread without reading because there was no subject line. I thought it was another spam mail from a hijacked account. I only opened this one by accident. Jeez folks, how hard is it to put a subject in? RLM From: Noel Crawford <georgecrawfordsr@comcast.net> To: CBQ@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, July 19, 2013 1:00 PM Subject: Re: [CBQ] (unknown) Pete,
That is amazing. Even in my best physical condition, I would be chicken to try that one. The neatest one I saw was when the west bound local pulled by a 4-6-0 was in town doing sit outs and pickups one afternoon. They had left their consist on the passing siding by the house. When they were ready to leave town, the brakeman was manning the west switch. The engineer pulled the train out at a reasonable pace and when the way car cleared the points he knew the brakeman had to stomp down on the point lock, align the points for the main and lock the throw which would take at most a couple of minutes. Well the engineer didn't wait. He put the engine at close to full throttle without slipping her. By the time the way car passed the depot he was doing a very fast clip with the brakeman still at the switch. The man didn't even try to catch the way car, but instead just walked to the depot and went in. He knew another train was due in soon so he had the agent set the semaphore to slow approach. When the following engine was even with the depot he swung on and rode to the next stop for the local. Some of the guys told my dad that the brakeman tried to bean the local engineer with a baseball size lump of coal before he got off the engine carrying him. Don't think he hit him, but I am sure he got the man's attention and was not left behind again. Noel On 7/19/2013 9:18 AM, dhartman@mchsi.com wrote:
