    There has indeed been jockularity with engineers!

    Some are a bit surprised as my little M2 has full size Freightliner twins on the roof, they are quite baritone and very pronounced.

    As a receiver they are not great. The guys in back on the pit are absolutely great. However the long haired boy that used to be on scale and testing when you come in was hard to deal with. His Dad was a big wheel there and he knew it. If he didn’t want to work that night he wasn’t gonna lol

    If you like trains, the Stripes in Texico is right next to the tracks. Train seems come through every 20-30 minutes.

    Let's do this.
    Find someone to make a calendar and everybody releases their copyrights, and give the money to St Christopher or whoever.
    Just saying.
    A bunch of you on this board are retired and have nothing better to do.

    Get crackin ya'll old drivers. Here's something to do
