	You introduced me to Walther - had forgotten his name, don't know why. 
If I missed Charlie's car, I looked for Walther.  Walther had operated
the interurbans into Washington County as well.  He always seemed
somewhat sad but a very nice person and excellent operator - he could
get that car to perform.  Rode him many times during County Fair Days.

	And how about Ted Lockman (looked and spoke like the actor Lee Marvin,
if I have the actor's name correct) who operated the interurbans in
Washington County.  Rode a fan trip or two with Ted and he, too, was an
excellent operator.
	A couple more were Walter McCloskey and Charles McCormick.
