107 by mp236 at 10:41 in the darkness, but know I saw Tim's blue light special and believe from the tread. Tim a long time friend from swaps years ago in Gifford where we traded many FEC stories. Even after moving closer to the tracks, been hard to catch him in the late hours. These ole foggies seem to not stay up as late! Too dark for engine numbers, but could make out a long train of IM with red and white Crowley's, a lot of Averitt's and spotted some Beauty Rest. Simply happy to see and hear 107 even tho it's dark thirty.
