Yep, during the Indian blockades in Canada about 1990-1991, I was railfanning with a friend in Neenah, WI, when we heard on the scanner of a detour coming southbound in to Neenah, so the crew change could be made. We headed down to the yard, and started snapping pictures of the CN units. Then, the head brakeman or conductor asked us to drive him back to the rear end to get the FRED. <br />No problem,so he jumped into the back seat, made a comment about it being against the rules,[}:)] we drove him to the tailend, and he got the FRED and threw it into the back seat alongside himself. We then gave him a ride back to the head-end, he thanked us, and we even got some in-cab pictures for our trouble.[8D] <br />We didn't bother billing him for gas...[:D]
