Hi here are a few fun pictures for a lazy afternoon (I finished up my students final exams, posted the grades, and am dropping off the grid to avoid complaints - only kidding).
Many of you know my Leonardtown and Savannah (L&S - "long and skinny") a perpetually broke, small regional, trying to hang on to local business and moving trains for big brother (Southern). Luckily there is a war on so traffic is heavy and for the last 3 years we have actually made money!...Well today is unusual, you know with war traffic and gas rationing, personal travel is hard to get and trains are crowded. The local intercity transit company, near bankruptcy in '39, managed to hold on and then the '42 war industry and a Port of Savannah work force nearly 3 x depression levels has swelled demand for their system. Today, one of their cars is returning from heavy maintenance in Macon and is traversing back to the port area via a temporary track warrant from the L&S. Nice fee to us and this is the mid-afternoon slow down as the morning commuter run is over and the evening run not yet started.
Here is the car, nice and pretty with its new paint and no broken windows!

I titled the next two pictures..."Sometimes even the mighty must wait"!!
Here is that new snooty fellow and his fancy car...but he waits just like Old Charlie in the '32 Ford pick up behind him.

Here, the mighty GP-7, newest power on the L&S waits as well even with the afternoon express to Macon/Atlanta...Too bad, these guys are paying us and we need the money!

Anyway, have a few laughs at my imaginary world...
