Actually, I was at work, racking up 26 hours of overtime in Two days...a much better use of my time. 

I am still reeling  from the Corman news release, more so this quote..  "Now is the chance to get a glimpse of this country and state's historic past." uh huh..... Looked like the circus came to town to me..that aint steam, thats a travesty

The Cubs win the World Series!!!...a 100 years ago.  In 1908 the Cubs won their second WS in a row; Babe Ruth was 13 years old; Adoph Rupp was 7 years old;  the CNO&TP was still using 11 tunnels in KY; and the route that Corman's steam engine took Saturday was known as L&N's Short Line.

Looking at the pictures I've seen of that scrap heap so far, all I can say is, Corman really is a peacock, eh?

Yep, instead now he buys an engine from a Communist State, and paints it in a color synonomous with Communism.   I realize it was his company colors before this occurrence of course, but I think I'd rather be strung out for sticking some red on an American build engine.

So the choice is really Cubs or Corman?

Well personally I doubt rick really cares what the people say about his paint job on the QJ. He has done a good job with trying to bring steam back to Kentucky so for that I pat rick on the back!

Butch,

If I had known you were going to be at the east side of the tunnel, I would have made more smoke for you. But with that Pocahontas coal you have to really over-fire to get smoke.

It appears that a Corman-Cubs partnership has developed.  At a recent Cubs game, a half-scale QJ prepared to circle the warning track in celebration of a Cubs home run.
