Has anyone reading or writing these little anecdotes of railroading ever used 
the age old "instructional" phrase "OK, go ahead and back `em up" ??  It's a 
common but dichotomous statement indended to inform the Engineer of the need to 
"get goin" - BACKWARDS.  I prided myself on following, EXACTLY, the wishes of 
my Cond. so, after stopping to line a sw. behind us to shove into another 
track, I received that very command.  I complied !!

We had a trusty ol' SD9 that day and, as some may remember, SD9's were quite 
responsive to the throttle and would reverse their direction in a heartbeat 
when requested.  After the rear man got the sw. lined I followed, EXACTLY, my 
Conds. wish.  I could never quite understand why I received such defamatory and 
colorful remarks from the waycar after we got movin'.  Oh well ?.
