Hi Guys...............
Sorry I didn't get here sooner..... This time of year is busier than hell for me, between work and Motorsports........
Mike, Thank You. That was a trip watching that. One of the Guys on the Tall thing working on the Trolley Car Wires might have been my Great Uncle, who worked for the Streetcar Company...... I wasn't on Engine 28 though, I already had the best job in the Department: Day Work guy on the Floodlight Unit........

Whereas I always tend to turn conversations into fishing, Harve has a unique talent for turning any thread towards tractor pulls.. I bet that tractor could pull a bass boat like it was nothing!
