Favoriting Bryce: Playlist from March 24, 2023 Favoriting

I never miscue a record. I am punctual, well-prepared, and dislike clutter. Outgoing and helpful, I'm always appropriately dressed. I do not behave erratically and have excellent penmanship. My CD's never skip, and I am in good health. I like all the notes, in any order.

"“Runaway Train” is a real-time recording of the captivating radio contact between Alfie, controller of the line and Wesley, the driver of a runaway train. Location: New Brunswick, Canada. Dateline: 9 March 1987. This tape had been circulating among CN and VIA Rail employees and a copy eventually reached Brian Damage’s dad, and then Brian Damage."
