I don't know if Steak 'n' Shake is open on Thanksgiving Day. Back in
neolithic times (the '60s) they closed for just two holidays, Thanksgiving
and Christmas.
I saw you waiting on GLME-25 at Homewood for GLCE-25 to go by. I grabbed
the numbers on the BRC GP38-2s (491, 495 and 494) that were behind the
power, but forgot to run computer traces on 'em.
It was rather quiet on Desk 4. I came to work and Fulton was suffering
from yard congestion. Between Brazil and Swan Lake on the Yazoo District,
the track men had to repair a broken rail. I02-25 had to set out a 5-pack
at Woodstock because the slack adjuster wouldn't let the brakes release.
MEBR 25 made a photo-finish at Jackson right at 2000, his hours of service.
I put P058-25 in the siding at Valley in order to keep MEBR going. It was
a "slide-by" meet, with hardly any delay on Amtrak.
