Just looks like another ordinary shot...the hogger seems to be focused and concentrating on what's in front of him.....wait a second...who is that ?? Rumour has it they let him out of Mac Yard with a DPU although we havent seen it in person..... yet.... :) Also rumoured he hates 2000's series units leading ( we wont say what the next unit on THIS consist was ) Story has that he prefers to run up the Operating Ratio by turning his power at any wye...no matter how far away..instead of changing ends... Any guesses?

    Seems he likes GMD’s more than the GE’s. Lol. Doesn’t surprise me.

    Not sure who he is but sounds like a very smart engineer :-)

    Some say he isn’t real at all, but a figure of our imaginations. The man, myth, and legend.

    @ngineered4u, @cpcnguy….you’re right…not real….just a familiar “voice” on the scanner….a pundit to bad RTC’ing….symbolic that the smaller train should go first….
    yes…a hogger god….
