Prior to the automated hump, tower operators, or towermen, retarded and switched the cars that rolled down two humps, the East Hump and the West Hump.
The East Hump had been put into operation in 1931 with Towers A, B, and C. There was a dispute at the time as to whether the switchmen or ORT would get the tower work.
You had to get "the feel" of tower work; it took "common sense." If a problem developed, like a car hanging up in a retarder, the "A" Towerman could set a red board on the crest of the hill to stop humping.

 AMERICAN COPROPHAGIA
Howard Dean’s December 7 speech is the most important statement on race in American politics by a mainstream white politician in nearly 40 years.
The fact that the whores have come up with this "radical left-wing" script for such an obviously centrist (even by some measures conservative) candidate like Dean is beyond laughable--it simply proves that not only do they not listen, they willfully disregard actual observation and facts in favor of their wacky preconceptions and prejudices.
And the reaction to bringing the party to the center and allying it more closely with corporate donors was that the people at the bottom of the totem pole felt a little detached.
