I got derailed · 11:15pm Aug 9th, 2021
Ok, so I must confess that I was supposed to write today, but what was a quick look into other railroad terms and words used from the days of steam and the 1800's to mid 1900's turned into TWO HOURS of laughing and sharing them with my other railroader friends. I mean there are some pretty on the nose terms that work way to well in this universe. Like: MULE SKINNER—Driver of mule cart. So as you can see, I got side tracked, which led to me being derailed.
Here's the link so that you too can take a ride on the laughing train express. Just be sure to highball through to the end.
