Your post did just that. That's hilarious. Have you really done that? <br /> <br />Erik <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Yes i do on a regular basis . I have also worked with these same guys after waking them to get lined in to a siding act like i dont hear them on the radio when counted down to a stop. and I will usually stop about 500-800ft further than needed . the 1.5 mile walk gets them up and alert.. but there is a draw back to this, once up they usually start yaking. sometimes silance is golden <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Hi Wabash, <br />I am getting a vague feeling that you don't care much for conductors[:D]. Say it ain't so![:)] Is it all conductors, or just those that like nappy time?[8D] <br /> <br />Admiral.
