Re: (erielack) Moving around....

  I'm assuming this is a joke Steve...... Sammy NEVER gave anybody anything. PLUS I transferred to SCRANTON from Youngstown first. When I went to Binghamton, 1963 or so, Sammy wasn't even in the picture. I think he was still running engines on the ERIE side & later took the RFE position. 

Regards & have a Merry Christmas.

Walt Smith

Most of the guys went on their own at their own expense.  Walt is  probably 
too embarrassed to tell us but I think I heard somewhere that Sammy  Miller 
give him two months of lodging at a nearby hotel in Binghamton and $7.00  
per day for meals, which was pretty good then.
