In keeping with tradition, the JREB Christmas poem.
T'was the night before Christmas
And all through the system
Things were quiet
Thanks to NS wisdom
When from the North End Desk there arose such a clatter
That the dispatcher answered to see what was the matter.
Rockport needs steel and real railroaders don't rest
61A is ready to go west
Check box two and get them EMD's humming
West Talmage to Dumesnil no time for GE's burning.
West Talmage, Waddy, Coal Chute and Joyes
Go right on by, no meets tonight boys
The railroad is yours, and we won't put up a fight
Keep them wheels rolling on this holiest of nights.
Merry Christmas yall!!
The Jreb Team wishes everyone a happy healthy safe holiday.
For those of you that know fellow member T-Bone (VaSouthern) he is deployed with the air force in the Middle East, and is away from his wife and young daughter. Drop him a line of holiday cheer if you know him and get a chance.
You beat me to it Jason...and didnt even credit the talented feller that penned that little ditty.. :)
Hope everyone has a merry christmas...
