Very sad for me to report that long time retired Harlem engineer Vic Westman passed away suddenly a few days ago (I don't have the exact date). Vic was an absolute gentleman in every respect and a great railroader. I qualified on the Harlem to Brewster mostly by riding and working with him back in maybe 1983 or so. He was one of the finest I ever met. We'll miss you Vic.
