    A big THANKS to John Chambers for getting us together this weekend, the great space at Watco and the great train ride.

    Thanks to Bob Wintle for the registration, set up and tear down.

    Thank you, Webb family for being so rail fan friendly and all the wonderful facilities and equipment we got to enjoy.

    I'm still all tingly from a great weekend. It was certainly one to remember.

    Ship IT on the Frisco!

    Rick,

    Thank you for kind words and the great clinic and thanks to everyone who attended. It was a great success! I know that you and the people who have volunteered for next year will do even better. Thanks also to Richard Napper for the clinic. A great big thank you to the Heart of the Heartlands members for staffing the train and feeding us at Carona. And a very BIG Thank You must be given to Rick Webb and the employees of Watco and the South Kansas & Oklahoma Railroad for making all of this possible.

    I forgot to mention Sunday that one thing that really helps us to keep these events happening is to send a thank you note or a card to Rick Webb. They really do help, Rick reads everyone he gets. Below is where to send them:

    Rick Webb, C.E.O.
    Watco Companies, Inc.
    315 West Third Street
    Pittsburg, KS 66762

    Thanks and see you in KC in 2010!!!

    Rick,
    We've got our work cut out for us.
    I was very impressed with the whole affair. My hat's off to John and the fine folks at Watco, especially Rick Webb for so generously supporting our fun. I know it takes a lot of behind the scenes hard work to put together such an event. It was very well planned and choreographed.

    John, it was great meeting you and thanks from the bottom, middle and top of my heart.

    To the Heart of the Heartlands group - keep up the great work - it is definitely appreciated!

    I just finished my Thank You letter to Mr. Webb. I hope others who enjoyed the great WATCO hospitality will do the same.

    Thanks again to John Chambers and Rick Webb.

    Ship IT on the Frisco (SKOL) !

    I wish to Thank John Chambers and Rick Webb for the great week-end in Pittsburg. The clinics were great and the train ride to Corona and Heart of the Heartlands group, were always ready to answer anyone questions. Thank You again.

    John, I just sent Rick Webb an email thank you, and I put a copy in a private message to you, however, the copy to you does not appear with the spacing of the one that I sent Rick.

    My Point -- should I write anyone else? Maybe the heartlands group?

    Sherrel,
    Thanks for the note to Rick. I will forward your comments to the Heartlands so no need to write to them. Wish you could have made it and hope to see you next year in KC.
    Thanks,
    John Chambers
