I am sure those gals made your day Jerry!
Craziest thing I ever had happen was some gal in a vestibule flashing her boobs at us in 1979 on a CPR 2839 Trip from Cincinnati to Danville, KY. There were 6 of us guys in 2 cars, including 3 visiting from W. Virginia. On the return one of the WV guys was at a crossing shot with us, and started whooping it up. We said what's going on. He said that some gal was flashing us. Well I was shooting movies and missed it apparently. So we tried another spot and she did it again, but I panned the wrong coach. So we had one last chance as the train started down Erlanger Hill toward the Ohio River. We went to the last crossing, and all spread out about 100 feet apart. My brother and another guy were seeing the train first. I have the camera rolling, she pulls her tank top down before my brother, and he yells...."Do it again", and she does. I didn't miss that one, and have it on super 8 film. I thought it best not to include that in our 2839 video I released about 8 years ago!!!! One of the guys on our trip was a friend of mine from Parkersburg. He was a Chessie(CSX Now) engineer, and said he would see gals sunbathing in the nude and never cared if the crew saw them.
Anyone remember Virgil Staff, with all this girlie train shots in the 60-70's?

PS. I did show the Cincinnati footage of the 2839 trips to an NRHS meeting as the program about 2-3 months after the trip ran. There were some woman in attendance. The were some gasps when that scene showed up!!!!
Pretty funny really. Some of the guys patted me on the back saying good one, Greg!!!
