Grandad (VGN engineer W.R. Bloyd) kept a bunch of cotton waste in the garage in Victoria and used it for things like cleaning shotgun bores, fishing reels and cleaning stubborn bug juice and other stains off the car and other metal and wood surfaces around the place. <BR>
Grandad said that VGN steam locomotive crews on the west end had used water-dampened waste to breathe through when going through tunnels. <BR>
