Most of my fellow employees think that most rail-fans are a group of 'dolts' who need to get a new life, but this is obviously short changing what is a fun and easy hobby to pursue. We are getting alot more trespassers who put us and themselves in harms way when they stroll through our railyards and along our main-line right of ways in their sandles, and shorts with their straw hats. Just the other day, I witnessed a father of 3 little tots take change from his pocket and place them on the rail in front of us. What an example...huh? Of course I'm probably digressing as he was'nt a responsible 'fan', and to you folks, I say keep it going. I know that there is a bit of rail-fan in all of us, it's just that alot of R.R. employees are just not willing to admit it. I don't care who it is, when they climb aboard a brand new 'pumpkin' Dash unit or whatever, and the paint is still wet, the excitement is very real!...Hommie
