  SHABBONA is a town in North Central Illinois.

  "Bobbing for apples" on FRA-sanctioned inadequate rest? Shame on you! I did 
use conductors' and rules examiners' (who were "playing possum" to make sure I 
was awake, of course) heads as grade indicators on occasion, though.

thought there is a real town or county named Shabonna? Thought I saw it on a 
map.
