You don't fully appreciate Pee Wee's cooking until you wind up back in the Blue Show pie car!

You appear to be a good sport about it, or at least resigned. The gentleman behind you looks like he'd rather be anyplace else in the world.

Buckles - - -I took this photo in the pie car the night the Blue show loaded out of Atlanta. However, it was February 19, 1995 - - not 1994.You were making your last train ride to Charlotte as boss bull man. We had just walked the bulls from the arena to the cars for loading, my only experience of striding beside a marching herd with bull hook in hand. Remember, I ate with you on the pie car - - a very good cheeseburger. You had invited me to ride to Charlotte with you as you had a 2nd bunk in your compartment. All you had to do was clear it with the RBBB manager. No dice- - no one rides the train but employees, a policy rooted in liability concerns - -even if the guest signs a waiver. There was once a time when such was possible but not any more.
