People often make this sort of mistake. On Saturday, a couple of people congratulated me for my excellent article about the 640 in the latest Rail and Wire. Thanks! I did proofread it, by the way. And I myself have to think hard before talking to Wes or Warren Lloyd, and even then I sometimes get it wrong. Or the Schnebles. Nobody's perfect.<br /><br />Anyway, it's not our fault that the blog software doesn't make it real clear who posted what. You've probably noticed the same thing on the IRM department blog. But we've developed a few ways you can easily tell which of us wrote a post.<br /><br />1. I use black font, Frank uses blue.<br />2. I capitalize most of the words in the post title, Frank doesn't.<br />3. Most of my text is justified. Frank never bothers to justify anything he writes... so to speak.<br /><br />Randall (the OLD man)Randall Hickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16246581917018679919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810478746663531557.post-54877368685693131842017-07-31T16:40:33.604-05:002017-07-31T16:40:33.604-05:00Better watch out, Nick.

That's greatly appreciated.<br /><br />As for the park train, it would be in the way if we were doing anything on the 321, but we're not, and it has to be stored somewhere. I've heard rumors that it's for sale, but I don't know who's in charge and who makes the decisions. Meanwhile, I'm careful not to damage it. <br /> It's another one of those cases where it might be an asset to the Museum if we had the people to restore, maintain, and operate it.Randall Hickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16246581917018679919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810478746663531557.post-28875425480224873282017-07-31T11:44:31.228-05:002017-07-31T11:44:31.228-05:00Interesting repurpose of the MTC G12 coachInteresting repurpose of the MTC G12 coachAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10161233817887519965noreply@blogger.com
