Jmano33, That's Pan Am's motto!
Did you hear about the guy who wanted to commit suicide by lying down on an EL mainline in Pennsylvania? He ended up starving to death!
The most reported injury on Maumee and Western? Motion sickness...happened every time a train started to move!
Now on to some CSX jokes:
Osama Bin Laden brought firey devastation to the City of New York. CSX Brought fiery devastation to the City of Baltimore.
Osama Bin Laden destroyed the World Trade Center as we knew it CSX destroyed Conrail as we knew it.
Because of Osama Bin Laden, airliners were flying half full. Because of CSX, freight trains were running half full.
Thanks to Osama, it takes six hours to board a plane in Newark, NJ. Thanks to CSX it takes six hours to get power off the pit in Selkirk.
Osama Bin Laden disruped mail service throughout the Northeast. CSX disrupted rail service throughout the northeast.
A boy applies for a job at a local railroad tower. He goes for an interview, during which the Railroad Supervisor asks him "Lets say you get the job to work in the tower. You have 2 trains coming toward each other on the same track. What would you do?"
The boy replies "I would use the lever in the tower to switch one of the trains to a different track."
The supervisor says "Good. Now what would you do if the lever was not working?"
The boy says "Well I would call the next tower up the line and have the operator there switch one of the trains to a different track."
"Good" says the supervisor. "Now what if the phone line was dead. What would you do then?"
"I would go down to the trackside and throw a turnout by hand to switch on of the trains to another track."
The supervisor says "Good. Now what if the hand lever on the turnout broke? What would you do?"
"Well" says the boy, "I suppose I would run down the street to my house and call for my father."
"CALL FOR YOUR FATHER?! WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT? YOU HAVE 2 TRAINS ON THE SAME TRACK!!"
Says the boy "Exactly. My father ain't never seen no big train wreck before!"
