Those are very cool. I was under the impression that they tried to avoid removing the cabs if at all possible, and that the 482 this past winter was the first to have one removed in a very long time. It's also interesting to see the crew board. I've heard about it from Bill Colley, who also mentioned some of the RGS tools were still in use in the shop before the fire. There is a newer chalk board that rarely sees use. Far less nostaligic, but it still sees historically appropriate levels of roundhouse humor.
