Hunter - When we met in January of 2000, you were just a 6 week old pup who walked his way into this heart of mine as the only runt in the litter who would come over to me. And today, I sit here and tell you I am sorry we had to put you down. It was the best thing for you and also the right thing to do. May you now rest in peace and comfort. Love, Dad. 8 June 2010

I love you and miss you Mom. Say hi to everyone up there for me. Rest in peace and comfort. Love, John. 29 March 2017

John, Yes, it is still valid. We can have a shipment ready to go by tomorrow. We've got about 3/4 of the train loaded, and the extra board will finish it this afternoon and send it on to Chicago overnight. You should have it shortly after that. Would you like us to run the two ARK SD40-2's through on lease with the cars or will you pick it up with your own power from Chicago?

Thanks for the load! Would be great if you could run them through on lease. Just let me know your charges for the leasing and I'll have my CFO cut payment to you once the load is received.

The G&L RR needs more rail material to complete its road work.

We are interested in high grade ready to lay rails in sections of 65ft. We have estimated that 7 car loads will be needed.

Thank you.
