These hard working railroad employees should be thanked - then given two weeks vacation with pay after this winter is over.  They are all working long hours without any days off, with lack of sleep and good meals, not seeing their loved ones, all the while working the majority of the time outside in freezing weather listening to the public complain because they can&#039;t &quot;adapt&quot; to the temporary problems.  They are doing the best they can with the equipment they are provided.  Hats off to all of you.  You deserve a long overdue break.
