Reply to "Team Track & Transload Tuesday : 05-26-2020"

Thanks Abrail for continuing this thread each Tuesday!  I hope your MOW workers stay well hydrated in all that sweltering heat.

Today's TT & TT contribution is entitled:

                                 "How do you like dem Potatoes?"

On the FJSR team track 2 in Lower Patsburg a BAR State of Maine Products boxcar has arrived.  It's bill of lading states that the car is loaded with ....... you guessed it ..... patotoes!!  

The switch crew has spotted the car at the loading platform on team track two. ( Btw - I received this Lionel milk platform as  part of my first electric train,from Santa, when I was 4 years old. ) IMG_8525

Thats Jerry sliding the open the car's door.  He wanted to get the first peek of all dem potatoes. IMG_8529

Ralph the unloading supervisor just finished his coffee and has arrived on deck.  Jerry, now on the bed of the truck, is arranging the load which consists of barrels and huge sacks of spuds.  IMG_8534

Thats Fuzzy Simmons at the boxcar's doorway.  Fuzzy is part of the unloading crew.  He's imagining the pile of home fries all these potatoes would make.  Fuzzy's wife Ethel fixes him up some home fries every morning for breakfast.  Tonight she's gonna being serving Fuzzy some of her special Tatertot Casserole!  She say's that Fuzzy likes potatoes so much that one day he will turn into a spud.  IMG_8536
