Peanut Buckets Coming to DAWGTOWN

The problem is that the train ride from Dallas to Ruston will have a bucket of stops along the way and take 7+ hours. And the drive is less than 3 hours 45 minutes. The train from Ft. Worth to San Antonio is 7 hrs. 45 minutes and the drive is 4 hours. But the train is way more relaxing as I35 sucks.

Yeah, if they can't figure out a way to give passenger trains priority and make fewer stops, they have no hope of really attracting most people. Pity. Good trains are easy travel. Loved taking the train in Europe.

I’ve taken the Amtrak from Jackson to Chicago three times. Enjoyed it immensely. Last time was 2009, so not sure if anything has changed since then.

Had a supervisor that took his boy to a few games in Chicago. Last time was probably 2015-16. He said it was always enjoyable.

Looks like the Ruston QT is near completion. The best news is that I didn't see any truck diesel pumps. Its amazing how fast QT contractors can get things done.

Just got on to see if anyone knows where the Chase operations will be on North Service Road? KNOE and this article did not or would not say. Also, is Teriyaki Grill going back where it was? Heard Delta Biscuits may be going in the Origin Bank depot location on Alabama. Is that true?

Thanks.

I think the Chase operations center may be going in behind Tractor Supply. I could be wrong. That would be a great anchor for more development there.

For sure. Ruston leadership continues to move and shake. It's a shame Tech can't keep up.

That was my thought after thinking where there was enough empty space. Good for a large office building/parking down there with not much public traffic since it’s kind of out of the way to put in retail/eateries that need through traffic or quick interstate access, at least for now. At least they will be seen from 20 unlike Scott’s Seafood that was too far off the beaten path. But good step in that direction. Hope that makes sense.

Congrats to the City of Ruston for their new animal adoption center/shelter. Ruston joins the growing list of cities taking control of the humane treatment of animals with an emphasis on saving their lives and getting them adopted out to good homes. I am on the board of directors of FAUNA which is the Natchitoches organization of the humane society. Our goal is to close the city's kill shelter and replace it with an adoption center. As always, Ruston is waaaaaaaaaaay ahead of Natchitoches in actually seeing results. Again, congrats to Ruston on the new center.

And, yeah, too bad Tech lags behind Ruston...
