Hi!
I have the "Big Haulers Fast Mail" set, and I cannot figure out where to place the fireman (the man with a shovel).
Any idea?

I always place him on the tender deck with the idea that he has just finished putting coal in the firebox.

So that is where he goes? I was putting him astride the boiler behind the stack, whooping and hollering like Andy Devine in Dr. Stranglove... ;D

I think you mean Slim Pickens (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snTaSJk0n_Y). ;)

I can not believe Greg missed one.

Yeah, I though I might have gotten it wrong when I posted, but I was tired and did not do my research.

Thanks for the correction, and that you also saw one of Kubrick's and Seller's great movies.
