Tim A. will probibly like this one! From V29#3 North Western Lines titled - Slow or Fast freight- <br />The following was overheard on a Chicago Great Western branch; <br /> <br />Shipper: "You say you have fast freight and slow freight from this town. You charge twice the amount for fast freight as slow freight, and yet I find that you have only one train a day. How do you explain that?" <br /> <br />CGW Agent: "We put the fast freight at the front of the train and the slow freight at the back, and so the fast freight gets there first. Our motto is to please the public."-Jim L. Rueber <br /> <br />Motorolla would have loved to hear that for an explination!! Hey at least the agent was honest!! <br />Icemanmike-Milwaukee
