A reverent Amen brother.

I had to live with stadium expansion.... I deal with it.


If anyone ever tries to take away the arch, my reaction will be nuclear.

Thanks for the memory kentdaddy. Below are a few things that I had mentioned some years back. My Grandfather is shown in the still photo of Engine 208. Also, the video shows my Grandfather at work, notice the coal burning 208 doing her stuff. Grandfather used to take me on board when 208 was in Gainesville on weekends during switch engine cleanup of the tracks. I would pull the the cord to ring the bell at every street crossing in Gainesville. Wonderful memories. Time certainly moves on. My Grandfather and Engine 208 covered a lot of tracks in Athens, Winder, Jefferson and other towns.

Household keepsake of my Grandfather and Engine 208.

For some reason I can't get a photograph of my Grandfather and his fireman in a still photo to print here on board Engine 208.

Whatever, a special time in Buc's life.

Thanks again kentdaddy for remembering.
