EXCELLENT JOB CTT!!!!  I hope this will be a ongoing thing at YORK.  KENT, tell DA BOSS you need an IPAD to get the reports in, that little phone just don't work that great and tough on the eyes.

Great job and had fun with this, Thanks again,

Thanks CTT for these posts, sure fun to read about the York experience.  It's been 4 years for us and we just had a great time, really enjoyed the whole PA experience.

So many roads, so little time.

Good job KENT.  WILLIAMs also have a great looking trolly out with open interior, all electronics are in the trucks, very cool looking.

Open interior...THAT'S IT! As I looked at this trolley at York, I thought they looked great, and different for some reason. No motor blocking the interior!

We're just sending two people to a York right now. While I'd be up next in the rotation, I believe Roger will be going with Carl in the Fall because he has a new book coming out.

I asked about you, Carl said "He was holding the fort".  Still need forts in Wisconsin?

You had said in a post that you ran "OO", I was going to ask how extensive.

Believe it or not, I AM now typing this reply on an iPad!!! Got my hands on the unit that various teams at KPC are testing. Much easier to type out sentences when the keys are as big as dimes. Still waiting for the ability to run a train using this device...
