Being that my wife is pregnant and our first child will be due in mid January I have been looking for a way to be closer to home. Fortunately there were bids open on RCO training at my local terminal. I start class Monday morning and will train for a few weeks. Then I can work in the yard and be home every day/night!!!!! I'm not a fan of remotes, but it may be the only way to survive the winter furlough. Now it's time to go to my basement and start practicing on my layout and do some switching, LOL![:p]

I found out that one of the remotes down south went nuts and a yard cut with the remote attached took off on its own and no one could get it stopped so CSX temporarily suspended the Remote Program until the bug is fixed. I don't know if anyone else heard about that????
