lol, I'm sure you do.

The R142As have a distinct howl as well but that's part of their propulsion, I've never heard an R142 "howl" though.

I hear them on the R142's all the time. But if you do hear them on the R142A's, then you should hear them on the R143's.

Heh. Nothing like breaking down at 7th Ave NB and being told that trains were starting to stack up on the bridge to convince 59 to bring you in. We had geese that didn't want to HEAR about an ABD and natch, no cop there. All was made well at 59. :)

Most of the guys who escaped from the "low iron with a brogue" will tell you - the stretch limo fleet IS nicer even if some of the supervision is the folks YOU guys got rid of. There's something nice about usually NOT catching up with your leader. :)

Knock on plastic, bub! If yer doing laundry WILLINGLY right now, then it means that you weren't on "customer splash on the floor" duty last night. I remember pulling holiday overtime duty once on Moo Yeers (back in the old days when every backpack had Champ-ale or better and bar hopping was still the norm up until the event) ... and I also remember hearing people saying hello to their buddy "Hurk" outside my quarter cab door (which was closed fortunately) and deciding that it was probably better to finish my run out the storm door instead of the crew door if ya know whut I meen. (grin)

But me? I'm on duty right now - Chinese have their internet back. :(

Sorry to hear the Irish railroad has roaches. Hahahahaha.

If you've EVER been stuck on that way station, you KNOW what it's like. Agggh. :(

Don't remember what day ZooYeer was in 1971 (don't care) but it was a regular day IN for me and because of extras (fare used to be FREE back then during the "rawhide hour") running, it truly was the Blue Brothers nightmare at Bob's Country Bunker ...

Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin'

Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Though the streams are swollen
Keep them doggies rolling
Rawhide
Rain and wind and weather
Hell bent for leather
Wishing my girl was by my side
All the things I'm missin'
Good vittles, love and kissin'
are waiting at the end of my ride

Move 'em on (Head 'em up)
Head 'em up (Move 'em up)
Move 'em on (Head 'em up)
Rawhide
Cut 'em out (Ride 'em in)
Ride 'em in (Cut 'em out)
Cut 'em out (Ride 'em in)
Rawhide

Keep movin' movin' movin'
Though their disapprovin'
Keep them doggies moving
Rawhide
Don't try to understand them
Just rope, throw and brand them
Soon we'll be living high and wide
My heart's calculating
My true love will be waiting
be waiting at the end of my ride

Move 'em up (Head 'em up)
Head 'em up (Move 'em on)
Move 'em on (Head 'em up)
Rawhide
Cut 'em out (Ride 'em in)

New Year's Day fell on Friday in 1971. We were out in Richmond Hill celebrating with friends. Drove home early that morning via the Lincoln Tunnel. They had just started that Anticipatory Mass thing, so we took advantage and went to church on New Year's Eve. Then we proceeded to watch Notre Dame end Texas' 30-game winning streak in the Cotton Bowl.

Anybody ever tell you you're a SICK phuck even BOTHERING to remember the day of the week with a particular holiday in a particular year? Heh. ASPERGERS! MOO-wah-ha-ha-ha. :)

Did my two runs splits, signed up to do in excess of 30 hours on Teeyay property and the suckers GAVE me the hours! Heh. You story about yer buddy there on the F train notwithstanding ... there is NO insecurity wearing a badge than DOZENS of people doing a Cheech and Chong "cloudburst" on your cab door and watching the puddle GROW under the bottom of the door into YOUR space as you get deeper and deeper into Crooklyn. :(

And THEN there were Unca HURK's buddies outside your door and it seemed that when you dropped the sash, it only DREW the aroma up off the floor. Lots of folks who can spot the louvre hole differences between 4146 and 4147 have NO idea of what life is like "flattening the steel" for a living. Some runs are "hotel trains" for the "skels" ... there wass NOTHING quite as disgusting though as running a "revellers go home" train. :(

RAWHIDE! :)

I don't know about that. When I was the Wisky I always catch the R Train and say behind with Yellows and Red just like the good old 6 Line. However unlike the # 6 Line my train is just about empty because I let the R do my C/R's work.
