Happenings

Well, there's been a lot going around here lately. The roadbed is nearly complete, and we are gearing up to bring in a whole lot of dirt. After the dirt is put in place, we will begin the long and arduously exciting job of laying track. A recent grant has infused us with just enough money to make things move. We're still a long way from being profitable, but it's a start!

It's not all fun and games here, though. The fine folks at the Immigration and Naturalization Service recently raided our shop. As it turns out, the Chucky doll that had recently been promoted to the shop foreman position was actually made in Taiwan and lacked the proper paperwork to be gainfully employed in the United States. He has subsequently been deported, and the BCRR was forced to pay $1.37 in fines. 

Hayato the ninja mouse was terminated after he was caught pilfering peanut butter from various mousetraps on the property. Management has demanded that he vacate the property immediately, however, no one can find him.

With the recent personnel changes, Christoph, VP of Human resources, has asked me to pass on the following press release:

"NOW HIRING! THE BEECHER CITY RAILROAD HAS IMMEDIATE OPENINGS FOR THE FOLLOWING POSITIONS:
