"370 got dat slow cLEAR at pL-EASANT"
According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

CN MoW foreman at McAllister in Battle Creek to the crew on 397:
"Negative 397. Is this Jason?"
(I'm assuming 397 said yes here, based on the continued conversation)
Maintainer: "Well I was wondering if y'all wanted to give me a birthday present when ya get here".
Happy Birthday, Mr. Foreman!

Bridge over the New River wouldn't go all the way down! Tied up the whole town for 2 hours at afternoon rush hour.

I'm listening to Amtrak P370 pass Q327 in Benton Harbor, MI on the Grand Rapids Sub. Q327 tells P370, with one of the new chargers..."Man, those LEDs are bright." P370 replies,"Yeah, sorry about that, they're like a super nova."

Waiting on the CP Holiday Train at Milan:
"NS 120 clear west Milaaaaannnn, over!"
Dispatch: "A lot of people out there this evening for the Holiday Train, make some extra noise going by."
"Oh, I thought they were all gathered for us!"
