Thanks very much for posting these rosters. A number of familiar names from the top of that 1972 roster bring back some good memories. I had the privilege of visiting with Eakles Hille (#2), Wayne Couch (#5) and I.I. Avance (#15) quite a few times. Hille and Avance in particular were heavy duty railroadiana collectors and would usually set up at the Arkansas Railroad Club railroadiana shows each year for a number of years. Just sitting back and listening while these guys “held court” at the show was worth the price of admission. (They were often joined by Mike Adams and a few other Arkansas division railroaders of similar “vintage”.) Several of the other engineers, such as Snodgrass, Glover and I think Walmsley (#9-10-11) worked Amtrak when the Inter-American started in March 1974. These guys started firing in steam days, top notch railroaders.

Thanks again,
Bill Pollard

PS – Does anyone have any Arkansas Division conductor or brakeman rosters which could be posted?
