Anyone see the Dunkin Donuts commercial on FOX last night????
It sounded very similar to a move made by RS-81 at Divide 3 while waiting for a slot to do Jamaica Ash.................... :wink:

I think more appropriate would be the CSX crew which tied their train up on the River Line in Kingston, NY, blocking several grade crossings and essentially cutting the town in half, drawing the ire of the local police force and the FRA, when they were found sitting down in the Dunkin Donuts noshing on breakfast.

Apparently, this wasn't even a one-time thing!

When I was working up north on the New England Central, we'd stop from time to time to get snacks or lunch, but we'd always make sure we weren't blocking any crossings.

Now there were other tiems where we'd have crossings tied up for a little while, when we were switching locations where the tracks crossed a road right near a switch....but that was hard to avoid.
