glad it didnt spred into the woods cause its very dry. great job walnut hill fd!!
I work for the other railroad thru Molino…glad it was not mine…been there … done that and bought the T-Shirt too. Usually something wrong with the train when that happens…and can happen in multiple areas along the track…its better than a train wreck anytime
