Well, here actually. After 33 years, (and two months as CMO) Rick Musser had his final run (on steam) on February 16th, with his son Ryan firing, and pulling revenue freight no less! Rick's last day was March 1st.

Congrats to all the recent career steam railroader retirees; Steve, Rick, Earl, and Linn just in the last three months. You make me jealous!!
