It was sounding interesting until you got to the Jim Speaker part.

I met Jim on numerous occasions over the years while railfanning around Southern California. He had a penchant for climbing trees and signal masts and always attracted too much attention, often getting us thrown out of, or banned from, nice locations. My little circle of railfan friends would always bug out when Speaker showed up.

His photos may be great but he did a lot of damage to the reputation of fans in So Cal back in that day. Seeing him or his photos just brings it all back. Not much in the way of social skills either. Y'all have fun though.
