It was a little better than last year. Less kids for sure which was nice. Same amount of seat loafers though which is never nice. :( No way around that I suppose.

All three Es and the 1995 were on the point of a freight sitting in the yard this morning (05/21/2007). They were facing east with 1995 leading.
