The MOW gang's caboose and boxcar sit on Danlilu siding at MOW camp. Shorty Loggins is hogging the bathroom inside the caboose. O'l Jeater Farnsworth's strong cup of black coffee had just kicked in. He couldn't wait any longer for the caboose bathroom, so he had to use the double stall outhouse. As he bee - lined it toward the structure his eyes zeroed in on the second stall with the door afixed. He thought " Door number two is just right for me." He yanked on the door only to find six barrels of track spikes stored inside. He quickly shut the door mumbling " That &$)*^ had to hog the caboose bathroom! Now I have to use this dang old outhouse where what's behind door number two is too heavy to lift, so here I am doing number two behind where door number one should be!"
Having just stepped down out of the caboose, Shorty Loggins wipes his brow.
Patrick, I must add; Jeater leaves a stench that engulfs the MOW yard, the guy pushing the barrel looks at Loggin's and says, "Oooowee, did something die around here recently"?
Okay, so maybe not appropriate for a children's railroad book! LMAO
Love your stories Patrick!!!
