BTW, it's "whipper snapper" and I've never seen seconds spelled with the extra "e" either. Is that the Quebec spelling?? <br /> <br />Frankly, I'm not sure I buy your claim of former railroad affiliation in any event. You must have flattened a lot of wheels and upset a lot of engineers with your unsafe behaviors. That certainly could explain your not working on the RR. I know that many engineers who don't like conductors they work with have their own suite of tricks that can make life miserable for the conductor. That aside, pulling the air would require the conductor to walk the train and perform an air test assuming there were no defects. Not something I'd want to do as a conductor (why would one want to expose themselves to multiple emergency applications?), no railroader I know would do that for kicks as you imply you have done. <br /> <br />It is really easy to type the words here on the page, much harder to do the job in real life. <br /> <br />LC <br /> <br />
