I believe so too x-BN too. SP sure had a lot of rail buffs working for them and they were a good bunch of people. (IE) Larry Feerdeen, Virlon Smoot,John Edwards,Sellar Nugent,Dave Johnson, Vince Whelan, Bill Giles,Robert Allred,Karl Russell, They were all great and good employees of the former SP. As long as the kids play it safe and follow the rules and pay attention to their jobs and leave those cameras at home and cell phones in their grips. Why not? Hire them UP and BNSF
