Nostalgia & History > This Was RailroadingDate: 03/03/04 13:31 This Was Railroading Author: WichitaJct The brakeman on the Extra 2899 West snags orders at Lawrence Kansas in August '78. How 'bout those bib overalls. Kinda out style now I 'spoze.

I work with one guy that has worn them since he hired out in 1969. I used to wear them myself when I had to work in El Centro in the winter. They kept me as warm as toast.

PS I've yet to see magazines catch onto this trend. Let's keep this our secret.  Date: 03/03/04 19:59 Re: And the Girls Love Their Paychecks Author: alco636 Sweet!
Date: 03/04/04 05:55 Re: This Was Railroading Author: grande473 I had to read this one twice. I read over about the bibs. I thought grabbing orders on the fly is out of style. As for the ladies as one beer commercial labels an eye catcher in the extreme ``official trouble.''
