The most annoying and eerie sounds..
Have you ever seen a fast moving freight train that has went into emergency braking ?
More like heard it before.
In a rural area, you can hear this several miles away!
Dear Lord!
Always defined by what us railfans call "the sneeze"

As a railfan, I can listen to train sounds, no matter how horrendous all day.

I've been back for a while, but the doc put in some eye drops that played hell with my vision. I still can't see too good, so if I make a spelling mistake, please forgive me. :laughing7:

Mike, That's the Railway where I spent 35 years doing marketing....brings back lots of memories luckily most of them good.

bill from lachine · Aug 20, 2019

RR,

Yeah the drops are to dilate the pupils when they do the eye tests.....when my current eye doc did it the first time he forgot to put in the numbing solution so when he did the up close tests for my vision where the machine touches your eye it gave me one heck of a jolt.... :laughing7:

TODAY, kids get incredible build Star Wars figures AND a computer incl. a movie maker Prog and they present you on the next day a B-class Hollywood movie..... :BangHead:

I am a little bit p*ssed......... :laughing7:
