A quick grab of Enola choked with cars and trains...



Isn't that prototypical?

Choking it with trains... This is how you injure yourself. Just saying.

Tell ya what....  If I ever end up with as much staging as Todd Treaster, you'll see SD40s and even Amcans in the same video as my Pennsy stuff!

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Glenn Miller would have been more appropriate...

More era appropriate, and come on... Pennsylvania 6-5000?  The phone number of the Penn Hotel, across the street from Penn Station, NYC?  Jeebus.  You people kill me.

Next year at RBQ you're throwing this down, my bone blowing friends...

I got it, Lee.  In fact, Pennsylvania 6-5000 is one of my favorite Glenn Miller songs.  Have you ever heard the Brian Setzer Orchestra version?


"That number's been disconnected, honey."  So, back to the awesome PRR/Conrail Juniata Division Engineering Report.

Lee, I got it, but again we are from a different era so for us, Pennsylvania 6-5000 makes more sense  :) The younger crowd would not understand that PEnnsylvania 6-5000 is 736-5000, like you mentioned it's the phone number of the Penn Hotel. Just like my old phone number would have been UNion 9-5821.  In the US, the demand for telephone service outpaced the alphanumeric system, which lead to the area codes and the 10 digit number system we have today.
