Good morning everyone. I see where the weather is not being kind to a lot of folk. Still looking at snow, hail, tornadoes, rain and floods in parts of the country. The news shows video of massive pileups on the highways as they're happening. It's hard to believe we're a month into spring. Good luck to anyone here that's affected.
Larry, that sounds like a fun way to spend the day. I saw something unusual a while back on the BNSF mainline running into Phoenix. While waiting to cross, here came a passenger train. No, not Amtrak which doesn't go this way, but a train with real passenger cars from the good old railroad days. Railfanning is better than watching a baseball game.
To start with, there's more action.
