Between 7-7:30am I caught the southbound local holding at Van Dyke led by 4906 (part of cab covered in white) with centerbeam and covered hoppers on head end and double stacks on the rear.
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...
