Thank you, Bill, for the update on your findings and informing us all. My apologies also, if I made any conclusions regarding the fireman running the train as being out of place. I did not mean to imply this; the fact that you mentioned it in your book indicated to me it may have been unusual. I have read in Jim Frederickson's books of Northern Pacific's progressive stance among the nation's railroads in 'cross - training' firemen for the engineer's job.
With your kind permission, I would like to print out your updated findings and add them to the book. I will also make every attempt to see your presentation this afternoon, and to apologize in person.
