There were a couple of things in this interview I had some questions about...
Bob mentioned that "no engineer taught anyone anything on a steam engine"...what did he mean by that? (7:00 min)
Bob mentioned that he was "the first one not laid off every winter"...again, what was this practice about? (10:00 min)
The narrator mentions that his grandfather let him ride, and on one trip his grandfather pointed out that the speed recorder was "at 98" and they were all "drunk as ducks"...was he referring to the train crew? (12:40)

Cheers!
