Model Railroading > Scenes from “On Patrol Live” on the Telly

The lovely Mrs Murphy & I ocassionally watch this TV show if nothing else is on
Sat evening and we aren't out and about.  I can only take about an hour of it because
it is somewhat repetitive, though mildly entertaining.

1.  Routine traffic stop turns contentious with no drivers license, no insurance, and a smell of
ganga emanating from the interior of the coupe.  K9 has been called to positively ID the issue.

2.  Report of shoplifting catches the possible crook (innocent until proven guilty) on his way to 
his get-away vehicle, which he now claims isn't his now that the E type is hemmed in.

3.  Chevy made an illegal turn (no signal, was lit up and then took off.  Officer was concerned that the driver was a danger to the public, and in a adrenaline rush, pitted the offender into the ditch.

Never a dull Saturday near the tracks of the Texas & Gulf model railway.
