What is the final tally for tomorrow Lee? Like a good baker's dozen?

Here's the callers board...
Yard Boy - Ed
Yard Boy's lovely assistant - Dave Foxx
Mill Switcher - Brian
Mill Switcher conductor - I guess Bryan should do that... That way when we yell "Hey Brian" we'll only be bothering one crew, regardless of spelling.  I've got a ton of work lined up for you guys, too.

Road Crews-
Engineers and/or Conductors
Gary Hinshaw
John
Tim Sizemore

Local Crews -
Engineer/Conductors
Steve
Me
Bernie
and Carl.

I'll also be dispatching and troubleshooting.  (and eating munchies and drinking a beer or two... speaking of which, I only got a 12 pack, so I get the extra one, unless someone else brings more! ;D)

Obviously, we can mix and match as jobs come up and people get absorbed in the riveting videos in the next room... So that's 11.  But don't worry... The room is really opened up without the kid's junk in there.  If Ed and Dave can process trains through the yard in about 20 minutes, we should be steady rolling for about 4 hours.

I'm bringing some California beer.  Does that count?  ;)

I almost forgot about the three tower jobs... They can be kept after by whomever is close by.  These jobs are very cushy... chairs are provided.  Excellent for railfanning...

I got to church last night, so the doors will be open as early as noon in case you're running a little early.

Thanks again, Lee. I had a great time, and managed to still come home with a few Girl Scout cookies. And thanks Brian, for the coaching.

Ya Lee; I'm seconding the web cam and live feed idea....... I mean, geez.... what else do I have to do in Peterborough, Ontario in February.....I could watch the Western Maryland crew; Ed, Dave and the rest of the local gentry run trains, eat Dorito's and drink beer..... sounds like a day at the movies to me man !

Besides, I'd figure out a way to "kibitzz"...........
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Um, no. Try counting the periods again and pay particular attention to their placement - at the end of sentenceS. And, not to be a stickler but, the Girl Scout was never plural, the cookies were. Nice try though.

Ed: "I'm too sexy for this layout"
Dave: "Hey Ed, I'll mark you down for 2 boxes of Samoas"
Steve: "If I could only find a toilet"
