    An NS switchtender has just thrown the "Bison Runner" switch and thinks he is a Gandy Dancer as NS SD50 6502 and NS Dash 9-40CW 9207 move from Bison Yard to BC Jct. Yard at CP William at 8PM.
    He did a little dance for about 60 seconds which we have on video. Maybe we should send a copy to the NS office :)
