It's kinda like leaving a mailbag out for the train...it just hangs there and eventually someone will catch it :)

Nice coffee this morning, Jerry...got any left for this evening? :laugh:

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 :)
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.

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 :facepalm: :lol:

Nope, passenger trains never had caboosles. Freight trains had caboosles. :D Our local freight yard had a caboose parked there, a couple of years back. I took a pic of it.

Typenwriter? I have a 1923 Underwood here. Ya can't kill the thing. :)


I pretty sure they don't do the mailbag thing anymore.
For one thing someone would swipe the thing. :facepalm:

And evening to you all. :)
Hi Jan, yup, they wouldn't last 5 minutes hanging there, before some :censored: stole them.
