Hi All [:)] <br /> <br />I have not taken my test. Every time I get somewhat ready then something happpens and I have to put it off. Being stricken with "halftimers" doesn't help either. [;)] Wednesday morning I wrote out 2 checks to pay utility bills and was going to drop them off on the way to work. Well guess who forgot to take them? So you see how things go with me. [:0] [B)] [}:)] <br /> <br />I am trying to spend time in study but the one eyed monster keep dragging me over to itself. It just won't leave me along. [;)] [:D] <br /> <br />So if you don't see me for a few days you know I am really trying to avoid "IT" and get in some quality study. <br /> <br /> <br />Now for the other question. <br /> <br />I live in North Little Rock, Arkansas. I do exchange emails, regular mail and have a list of forum members and their telephone numbers. I will exchange addresses with those who want to do so. I have talked on the phone to about 6 to 10 forum members. But I won't post addresses or phone numbers in the forums, that can be done by email. I did email out a pic of me for the dartboards of forum members. I am forgetful so if you didn't get yours just email me and I will have my secretary (yeah right) email you one. [;)] <br /> <br />The UP yard in North Little Rock is one of the largest in the UP system. I want to say it is the second largest but don't quote me on that one. The movie, "End of the Line" was filmed in and around central Arkansas and the yard shown in the movie that they said was St. Louis was actually the North Little Rock yard. Something else interesting and railroad related is the fact that the old Rock Island passenger depot in Little Rock is now being used as part of the President Clinton Library. The Rock Island railroad bridge is next to the depot and will be used somehow in connection with the library. There are no tracks to the bridge anymore, they pulled them up somewhere around 10 to 15 years ago if not longer. [:(] <br /> <br />Every day on the way to and from work I pass under 2 Rock Island (now UP of course) railroad overpasses. Plus there is a grade crossing between the two overpasses that sometimes I see a UP switcher using. Most of the time I can't get to it soon enough to get the loco number. [:(] [V] <br /> <br />Well got to run, it is 2 am and I want to study for a few minutes then head to bed, and of course Duchess want to walk before we turn in. [;)] <br />
