Citizens Celebrate First Train in
new South Jackson!
Locals gathered in new South
Jackson to celebrate the prog-
ress beingmade by the BC&SJ
railroad’s track gang. Said
prominent citizen Horace
Fithers, “Well, we’re sure glad
to see some mainline in South
Jacksonconnectingthemcork-
screw tracks with Mill Bend.
It were getting’ right boring
A clipping from the
jest sitting around without
no trains to be watchin’. Even
though them engineering
types done a good job get-
ting the ground fabricated,
it’s still jest that monotonous
plywood color and a body
can only take so much of that
before they get kinda bilious.”
Double-headed cab forwards pull a long test train through the newly
installed mainline in the new, improved South Jackson yard.
