The engineer looks out the window while my son, Mark gets to drive 3 Sd45's around the wye at Corwith yard in Chicago. A friend and I had dragged my son along to Corwith to see what we could see. The sanding towers were a good place to see engines up close. The holster saw my son standing there and asked him if he'd ever driven a train. The holster said "Come on up", so all three of us got in the cab. The holster then said for my son to have a seat and pointed to the engineers. He showed him all the controls and stood next to him while he turned the train set in the wye. Santa Fe people had always shown class, that day they made 3 boys very happy!
