As SP 3194 slowly pulls this long string of cars into view something seems amiss...WHAT? The hog head has a CAMERA? As he slowly rolls by he yells a profane laced rant, something along the lines of (short version) "If you SOBs take my &%$#@! picture than I'll yours, you #$^!&$#s!!!". Man, one rail having a REALLY bad day...and yes, just another day in the life of a trackside railfan in the 1970s. But hey, beats having a lit fusie held in my face...that's another Espee story for another day. |
