That reminds me, Eric, of my writing the Maine Central. Back when I was a young skeets I thought I'd like to railroad in the fridgid north. Of course, I wasn't expecting to be hired sight unseen, but it was just a probe into the possibility. <br /> <br />I got a real nice letter from some official at Portland thanking me for the interest in their road. He suggested I stop in next time I'm up Portland way, and we'd talk. <br /> <br />I never went. It's just as well; I'd have been tamped under some ties somewhere by that slimy Guilford Industry bunch of cutthroats later on. <br /> <br />I still have the letter with the neat MeC pine tree herald letterhead. They deserved better than they got.
