[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Oklahoma Train Nut Ok so this is one of my first posts on the coffee shop. I have a question. For those of you who do or have worked on a railroad, what is it like ? It has always been my dream to work for a railroad. I'm only 13, but one day I would like to go to work on a railroad. I would like to work on a shortline or a regional. Thanks ! [/quote] Alex [:D] Glad you made it. [:)] [#welcome] I am trying to find another way to get you the pics since they didn't work. Maybe someone else can email them to you and that might work. I was talking with Zach (UPTrain) to see if there is some way to do it. About the railroad job. My mother worked for Frisco, but she was the chief pbx operator and not on a train. I have volunteered at the Arkansas Railroad Museum and worked the 819 Steam Excursions. I have also road behind the 3985 as a paying passenger and worked the 844 as a car host. I do wish I worked for the railroad but don't. If you want modeling help between Fergie, Ed, John, Tom, Bill, Noah, and others you can definately find it here. (Sorry if I left anyone out, halftimers you know [;)] ) And speaking of Ed . . . . . Hey Ed, you missed supper. [:p] The turtle did much better this time too. [:D] The roast was super and the potatoes were wonderful. [:p] Leftovers tomorrow for lunch. John [:)] I guess Saturday is the big day. [:D] Lots of surprises in store, I think you will enjoy the day. [8D] Maybe Teffy can give us an update in the other thread. [;)] Well since I am off tonight I might go to bed by 11 like normal people do. [;)] Probally have to take a pill though to get me to sleep since I will be going to bed about 4 hours earlier than normal, if I don't I will just lay there and won't sleep. Well everyone have a good night and a super day. [:)]
