“Conductor Intercom!”



the engineer called over the train’s PA system this morning, moments after the lights and air in all the cars went dead.

The conductor picked up, unaware of the fact that the intercom switch was still on, which allowed EVERYONE to hear their conversation, which went something like this:

Engineer: “Hey, we have no power.”

Conductor: “Yeah, I know.”

Engineer: “Well did you push the GREEN button?”

Conductor: “I have been pushing it, nothing is happening.”

Engineer: “It is the GREEN button, right next to the RED button!”

Conductor: “Yeah, I know!”

As soon as that was said..the lights and ventilation came back on.

I guess the conductor finally figured out how to push that GREEN button...

and he pushed it...

pushed it real good!

not feeling as train safe as I should

here's an excuse that should make you feel better, maybe...

People with color blindness cannot tell the difference between, Red, Green and Brown...

so they could be full of red or green poop and not even know it!

Another classic Susan story. Sorry to have missed all the fun on the 7:07 - we were quiet and un-impaired on the 8:06. Love & hugs...
