Oh, one note I did forget to mention. From my personal inside resources Deramus yard is under going a major face lift and being turned into a hump yard. This is from several people I know one whom works in the signal dept., and a hand full who are vounteer's on the KCS Chrismas train. They ride the "crow" business train while traveling with the Christmas train. It's funny hearing the stories about going to fast with the possible threat of a reindeer flying off one of the flat car's or any other decorations. I can't wait for our club show at Shriner's Hospital in Dec. The Hospital is almost right across the street from the I-49 north/south main line. Walk into the front lobby and watch trains come and go all day long or go back around the corner and play trains. That's where I'll be hearing the stories.
