Evening Playmate, Dies and JJ.It's kinda like leaving a mailbag out for the train...it just hangs there and eventually someone will catch it

Evening Dies, jj, Jerry!
I think that you are right, Poke, that's a thing of the past. Notice the Pullman cars on the train pic that you posted? They haven't been used in years.Nice coffee this morning, Jerry...got any left for this evening?
Thinking that's a negative on the mailbags, but I could be wrong.
Seems Dies had an interest in trains—hopefully he'll chime in and edjumicate us![]()

Nope, passenger trains never had caboosles. Freight trains had caboosles.I bet it had a caboose, too. Those are long gone as well...
Pulled that pic from the Smithsonian—I think they have my first typewriter in there as well![]()

Hi Jan, yup, they wouldn't last 5 minutes hanging there, before someI pretty sure they don't do the mailbag thing anymore.
For one thing someone would swipe the thing.
And evening to you all.![]()
