 Well, after rolling through my neighborhood 41 minutes late yesterday, I see the Starlight got its act together and escaped mention on the chief's report.

There, take that Brian!  😂😜😎

 

That's too funny!

I guess at 10 minutes late it just squeaked under the wire.

After looking again at the Chief's report for today, it appears that the protocol for making the list is to be one hour or more late. I hadn't noticed that before, but then again I never look at his posts anyway. Don't really need to know about the status of yesterday's trains, but judging by the number of views they get every day I guess a lot of folks do. Not many replies though, what's up with that?   🤔

Maybe in about  a  year or less none of them will be late.

Thats just about the right amouunt of time  to shut the whole LD thing down.
