Oh Deer!

My boss emailed these to me a few days ago. This happened on the Railroad overpass I-15 between Capital Interchange and Cedar Street in Helena, MT. The deer jumped off the overpass and landed on top of a boxcar in the Helena Yard.




It's a mule deer for those of you on the east coast who are used to just seeing the whitetail variety...

Ok...

Here's a rearward view of my train from my vantage point in the locomotive. Here we're leaving Townsite #3 cane elevator heading south to Weatherald #2 & #5 elevators, another ten miles south. We're pulling a cut of 60 empty cane cars to be spotted at there. It's around curves like this I take the opportunity to look back to check out my train for any defects.


And here's the coal mine I worked at in West Virginia. A Norfolk~Southern local leaving the tipple with another 50 cars of West Virginia bituminous.
Here the crew was waiting for train orders from the NS dispatchers.
And leaving the mine, destination; Points East.

Railroad humor

Me: "True..."
Jack: "This engine isn't doing anything in the number eight throttle postition again..."
Me: "You know what Jack? I'm so happy to be working for a company that beleives in preventative maintenance, and everything runs along like a finely-tuned, well-oiled machine..."
Jack: "That's where you work!"
What in the world would I do without sarcasm?
