    Hm another reason then Abilene is better than these other companies I've looked at. I don't know why I am nervous to go all the way to Virginia. Guess it's all those stories about Eastern roads, tight spaces, more crime. I should stop reading the news.

    I now have in my possession a newly graduated stage 3 trainee. Carl took his test when we were in the West Memphis yard this morning and passed with flying colors. We will finish out this coming week, go home for scheduled home time next Friday, then when we come out I'll take him to NYC twice then he'll be sent out solo.

    Dude, don't stress over Sh**t you can't control. I have zero issues when I travel up and down the east coast, I don't like it, but I deal with it.

    This is my second 680, both fit my Cobra 29, I had to give up my Connex, the 29 is the only radio that fits in the opening.
