The story of Billy Goat Run..
One day Buckethead Bill was working the Zephyr and saw some goats on the tracks near Newcastle. Being a guy that looked at life with the bucket half full, he decided to call the dispatcher to notify him that there was livestock on the track and that other trains should be warned.
The radio traffic went like this...
Bill: Dispatcher, there's several goats heading east on the westbound track. And I don't mean the switching kind, I mean the bah-bah-bah kind (as he said with a shat eating grin on his face).
Dispatcher: Copy that, I'll call the hearder.
No goats were harmed in the telling of this story.
