                        He is running the loco but yeah, I don't get that either. He can run the loco from the cab but mostly they run it with a hand held control box. It's supposed to be a safety thing. They can walk up to ten miles a turn over uneven ground and dark yards. 
                        doesn't seem safe to me.

                                Yeah, heh heh about that…I ask everyone not to repost these photos  because as @yinzer knows management takes a dim view of cameras on the property. A very dim view.  😶

                                      The tour jacket is an XXL. I’ve never had it in hand. I’ve checked my correspondence with Padmore & Son and there’s no record of measurements there, so I can’t help I’m afraid.

                                        @neph93 thanks brother. I’m certain this is a first for me.. you not having the answer I mean. You’re slipping man! Just kidding.

                                        Hey @steelworker would you mind measuring the PIt to pit on the tour jacket for me? Thanks brother.

                                            Slight change in the tour schedule. @organisys has had his share in the jacket bought by @DK. @DK is in the US and the jacket is due to head to Europe after @steelworker is done. Instead of delaying it's first transatlantic crossing and making @Aetas sad, @DK will go in at the end of the tour when it returns to the US. This means that everyone after @organisys on the original schedule moves up a month. It now looks like this:

                                            Here's the schedule:
