Re: GP40-2W

Where has Gregg been?
Some of you have probably noticed Gregg is not here as much as he used to be. He may not like it that I'm telling you because he's such a humble person but he's been practicing to be a super hero. See the video for a documentary of his training program...

Re: Musketawa RR
Nice Bob. Don't forget the power plant near North Yard as a possible new customer. They would get 120 or so car unt trains couple times a week (don't have my notes in front of me but I think that's what it could be). And Bay could get newsprint, 10-11 cars per week.
