The pony with Jeff
Location: Ponyville, Neigh Jersey
Time: 4:00 PM
Railroad: Lehigh Valley
Jeff drove an inspection kariton on the train tracks to where the mainline needed to be repaired. Another stallion was with him.
Jeff: So, how long have you been working on this railroad?
Donovan: Since 1941. Before the line was dieselized, I drove lots of high speed passenger trains to Manehattan.
Jeff: Fascinating. *Stops the cart* Is this where we have to repair the line?
Donovan: Yeah.
Jeff: Alright then, let's get to work.
Donovan: How about you? What taon did you start working for your railroad?
Jeff: 1945. I remember it just like it was yesterday. The Nazis surrendered, and my brother got back from the war. Shortly after he returned home, I told him about my job.
Donovan: *Giving Jeff several spikes* What did he think about it?
Jeff: He was proud of me. So were my parents, but they weren't as happy about it as my brother. *Taking out bad nails* He said, "Jeffery, one day, you're giving me a ride from our hometown, all the way into San Franciscolt for free."
Donovan: I bet you two actually did that.
Jeff: Actually, we didn't. *Chuckles* He had to ilipat all the way into Pittsburgh, because his wife found a job there. *Hammering the spikes into the track*
Donovan: *Grabs a bottle of water* I brought in several bottles of Poland Spring. Want any?
Jeff: I'll be okay for now. *Hammering in madami spikes* If I get too tired, I can go swimming in that river susunod to the track.
Donovan: I wouldn't recommend that. The current is too strong.
Jeff: Oh. Well, I don't think it's warm enough for swimming anyway.
In Cheyenne, Gordon, and Orion were repairing the line on Archer Hill.
Gordon: *Bends a spike as he hits it with the hammer* FUCK!!
Orion: Are you sure you don't want me doing that?
Gordon: I can do it!!
Orion: No you can't.
Gordon: *Jumps up, and down like a two taon old* YES I CAN! YES I CAN!!
Orion: Screaming will get us nowher-
Hawkeye: *Blows the horn on his train as he gets closer to Gordon, and Orion*
Orion: I got it.
Gordon: Got what?
Orion: I know how to get fired!
Gordon: Ugh. When will you stop trying to get fired on purpose?
Orion: I tried stopping three months ago, it didn't work. We will not repair this line, and that train will crash, causing me to get fired.
Gordon: Why just you?
Orion: I'll take all the blame, and say that you were busy working on another section of track.
Hawkeye: *Blows the horn on his train, and slows down*
Gordon: He's slowing down. He may not crash.
Hawkeye: *Gets switched onto another track*
Orion: Shit.
Gordon: Better luck susunod time.
A few minutos later in Ponyville, Chimney Sweep was talking to Jeff.
Chimney Sweep: I got madami track for you to repair. The Pennsylvania Railroad interchange has worn out rails. Some of the workers are already there, and new rails are waiting to be set down. I would like you to help out there.
Jeff: Good. I'll go over there now.
The interchange was close to Chimney Sweep's office, so Jeff was able to walk there.
Donovan: *Also working on the interchange*
Jeff: Donovan, good to see you again.
Donovan: Likewise Jeffery. Use your unicorn magic to set the rails down on the ties.
Jeff: *Using magic to put down two rails, one on each side of the track*
Workers: *Hammering spikes*
Donovan: I'm glad we have you with us Jeff.
Jeff: *Smiles as he continues using his magic to put down rails*
