Stein,"Wabash" means to overfill a track with cars or a Wabash RR stunt...This came about years ago when Rabbis use to bless(by washing?) kosher meat and this had to be done daily..So,once bless,the Wabash would shove these reefers onto a interchange track and foul both switches.These then became the problem of the connecting road..This was done so the Wabash didn't have to pay for another blessing.
