I was awarded the other day with an interesting letter from one of my railroadin' friends, Mr. Rondeau P. "R.P." Bell. engee, who is retired from the Chessie System, and now lives in Richmond, Virginia. Here is his following letter that I am sure his many friends will en- joy, and also his interesting article he wrote in the "Rich- mond News leader" Friday, May 4, 1979: "Dear Bill, I recently wrote an article for the "Richmond News Leader". and thought you might like to have it for your ,'Railroadin" column. It has a Hinton "flavor" as well as a Railroad "flavor". I have cleared it with the "Rich- mond News Leader", and they have no objection to you using it first, so give them credit for the article. You may not want it, but am sending you a copy anyhow. I take the Hinton News and enjoy your two columns. Sincerely, (R.P.) Rondeau P. Ballengee Thank you very much, "R.P. ,", for hearing from you and your family, and I am very pleased to know that you are enjoying your retirement by keeping busy with your wood- working. I sure do want your article that you wrote for the "Richmond News Leader", and will appreciate more articles from you at anytime. •  The following story was writt- en by Mr. Rondeau P. "R.P." Ballengee in the "Richmond News Leader" Friday, May 4, 1979: "Lathe Turns Old Wood Into Beauty"- "A rough Southern pine 2-by-6-irch rafter from the old Ninth Street freight house is not something a man can just carry into the house, place in the corner of the family room and announce to the littlewo- man, "This is something from the railroad that I want to keep." But if you would make a nice picture frame from that timber and place a picture of a K- 2 steam locomotive in the frame, it would be a welcome addition, especially if the locomotive was built by the American Locom- otive Works in Richmond in 1924. Or suppose you had secured a But if you put the rail in your wood-turning lathe and made aniee flower vase, it very like- ly would merit a place on the mantel. Or a nice frame for your grandchildren's picture would give your cherished chestnut fence rail a promin- ent place on the wall. These are only a few exam- plea of pleasure I have derived from working with old wood since retiring from the Chesap- eake & Ohio Railway seven years ag(x When I served my apprentice- ship as a carman apprentice from 1927 to 1931 on the C&O in Hinton, W. Va., much of the material above the underframe in begcar construction was weed. For that reason I served six months of the apprenticeship in the carpenter shop, where I became familiar with the var- ious woodworking machines. My favorite machine is the wood-turning lathe. The lathe does not necessarily require expensive cuts of wood to turn out beautiful products. One of my wife's favorite candlehofd- ers was turned out of a hickory stick of firewood. We have a beautiful pair of eandiehoiders turned out of a piece of dcg- wood which originally was used for freight car dunnage. Unless you are duplicating a turning, a pattern is net nec- essary. Just form it to your own design. If the weed grabs the chisel and mars the work while you are turning, the design usually can be changed et sl- vage the turning. When this happens, rm always reminded of the record in Jeremiah, Chap- ter 16, where the Lerd instruct- ed the prophet, Jeremiah, to go down to the petter's house for a lesson of the clay in the pet- ter's hand.' An interesting lathe project may be accomplished by build, ing up woed blocks glued to- gether, using two or more con- trasting cdors of woad, after which they are placed in the lathe and turned to various contours. Fruit bowls and simil- ar items may be turned out by using a lathe faeeplate. Hard- wood works best for turning and should be thoroughly dry. Freight ear dunnage ( temp- orary blocking or bracing in- stalled to protect cargo) was emntioned earlier. It has been a good source of supply for many of my projects. A 12- armed Afician violet stand graces our living room. It was made en- thurs. June 7, 1979" ' Railroadin' By Leader-5 tirely from freight ear damage. Two of our grandsons sleep in bunk beds made from the smae material. For the inexperienced woodworker many helpful books and booklets are avail- able. A good one for the lathe is "Getting the Moet Out of Your Lathe", published by Dicta Rockwell." Following Mr. Ba]lengee's article, the "Richmond News Leader" printed a nice history of him. "R.P. Ballengae, a native of • Summers County, W. Va., re- tired March I, 1972, after 30 years of service with the Ches- apeake and Ohio Railway. He was educated in public schools and completed a railroad car- man apprentice course through the Internaitonal Correspond- ence Schools of Scranton, Pa. Ballengee says he came up through the International Corr- espendence the ranks of the C&O from apprentice to car- man, lead carman, tool car foreman, foreman of the car departmant and general fore- man of the car department. The last promotion brought him from Hitnon, W. Va. to Rich- mond in 1659. He and his wife, the former Launa Flint, eeJe- brated their 50th wedding artni- versary last summer. 'Iey have two children and fve grandchildren. They reside .at 4818 Suecla Drive. in Henrco County. Ballengee is an active member of Immanuel Baptist Church."

The best of health and happiness to you and your family, and webwould be glad to have all of yo[visit your old stomping groun q soon. I thought it would be fitting, especially to "R.P." and all of his carman friends, to look at the accompanying picture of the carmen, which was taken many years ago at the Shoptraek in Hinton, W. Va.
