Very cool, I'm a conductor. Thanks! Small world isn't it? Hes on County C just north of Sharon, and I have family in Janesville
We can work both on the BN. Aurora to Chicago Metra stuff or freight. I spent the last 8 years on passenger and I'm working as a switchman at Eola Yard now for a change of pace for a bit.
I remember that car well, I was at the Steve heitman auction too. I liked that color blue but it wasn't a Plymouth or dodge so I had to pass. Glad it went to a good home.
Thanks guys, much appreciated! Wish I had known about the auction if not just to have spent a day seeing all those cool cars. Worked out in the end as I got it at a pretty good discount from what the fellas paid for it there.
Since it's the middle of winter and any real work is still a few months out, I did some ebay exercise today and picked a few things up. Since in Illinois, one of the about 3 cool things we're allowed to do, is run year of manufacture plates, I grabbed these, Then found a cool '77 brochure for 9 bucks, so why not Getting together my RockAuto shopping cart for spring maintenance, along with the Lean Burn conversion stuff from elsewhere. Can't wait to actually get started George
