A legend in her own mind…

5 more years!!!
I think he deleted his memebership, a member search for “naterich89” yield no results. I cannot figure out why since he had two unanswered questions and it seems like he joined on Friday.

Started braking in '88.
Got the good seat in '92.
The best job you’ll ever hate.
I always hate to say too much but better than three decades in on-train service and two-and-a-half of that in engine service. We’ve got lots of black engines with horseys on them.
its all right, naterich89 is now known as thaddeusthudpucker.
i actually joined trains.com in 2002, but only regularly started watching thus forum on friday.
everything’s cool!!!
23 years at Santa Fe (BNSF after merger). Now a shortline in Texas for 1 year.
Wow! Did you ever take out any of those 70mph intermodals with the 4 dash 9s?
I also don’t wi***o be too specific, but I have over 30 years as engineer and started as a brakesman. I’m peeking around the corner at 40. That makes me an olde man.
I worked for the oldest railroad in the US before some MBA surrendered the charter to simplify the freaking book keeping!
4 months just got card this year nad have been set up every since March 21st so much to learn and so much more time running.
