Who were the complete idiots heard whooping and cheering for this?

[fiddler04967]

Everyone in the area. It was this party atmosphere down there on 31st st. Amazing for college students at 7:00am in the morning!

Now my insurance company will never believe that my car got Flattened by an old Chimney!! LOL

LOL - Hey, compost happens! But of course you're going have to get someone to dig it out first. Now that's a bitch!

That's really sad. What a beautiful thing to have in the presence of railfanning, now gone. Yet another PRR memory fading away. Excellent video, 5*
