John Killoran (posed here in the cab of an EMD switcher) was the local chairman in Binghamton 1966-70. John was the soul of honesty, but was unprepared for the tactics of the Road Foreman of Engines, Sammy Miller. Sammy simply ignored the agreement & had hundreds of hearings every year. If John attended each hearing, he wouldn't have had time to earn a living for himself, plus Sammy would just ignore any points brought out to show unfair treatment. He'd usually say "your remarks are noted for the record.". In other words, 'I'll ignore you'.
Regards to all,
