91 pins

Had a dh to Roseville. Poor soul told the story of "91 Pins."

Seems he pulled into Stege with 60 and a 31 pickup (might not
be exact counts, my memory). At some point, the crew realized
that *every* *pin* in the 91 car string was pulled.

Ouch!

Imagine putting that back together, "ahead 50ft, back... 10...
that'll do... pin... good hook, ahead 50ft" etc etc. For 91 cars.

And then the UP Manager shows up. Heh heh I can't print
that part.

Some vandal was seriously dedicated to pull that many pins.
And finally, head end was rocked to just Make Your Day.
