catching on
Title:  catching on
Description:  Left to right, Conductor Fred Goff and Brakeman Johnny Tyner are seen catching on a train in front of the depot. Fred retired in 2004 with 34 years of service with the IC and Johnny was killed in a tragic accident at work in December of 1998. The train in the siding is a southbound freight that was detouring because of a derailment on the Yazoo District. The train's crew hogged here at Grenada and is currently awaiting a new crew.
