My first pay trip out of Edgemont, I was the head man on an mty.  We took 
siding at Upton to meet some.  The first guy had us lined in, and so the first 
switch I had to throw was the West switch, after we made our meets.  I never 
saw a point lock before, and it was on the side away from the switch stand.  I 
about pulled my guts out until the hogger came out on the "porch" and pointed 
across the track.  Duuuhhhh.

I gave that same guy a running start at me at West Osage one night.  I'm sure 
he was going more than the 10MPH "turnout" speed when he got to me, and I 
should have stepped back and made him stop, but I caught it.  Just about strung 
me out like a flag on the side of the motor, and I never made that mistake with 
him again.  I'd walk back up to the crossing and then give him a "come ahead" 
:>)
