[saraxaos11]

for the record I listen to industrial Rock, Metal, Techno, and old school hip hop and detest country music. but as an ametuer historian whos family came off the boat to work the rails, I apreciate this. Never forget :Chigago Nortwestern, Elgin Joliet and Eastern, Chicago Aurora and Elgin, Much love to my railroading forefathers and their wives.

America will one day sooner than the rich oil execs think pay for the abandment of railroads and their passenger service.

[ohiofoamer7612]

Cool! I volunteer for a tourist railroad and our line looks abandond. It looked like alot of those lines were tourist railroads that sadily failed.

[TrainGuy18]

tourist Railroads have to have 3 things to become sucessful in my opinion

1. a destination

2. Steady ridership

3. Reliable Equipment

wat tourist railroad?

[ohiofoamer7612]

@TrainGuy18 I volunteer for is the Toledo Lake Erie and Western railroad. We have been around for 40 years and about 13 or 14 years ago we had a culvert washout and havenot replaced it yet. We cant access the last mile of our tracks. this is the part that looks abandond.

[TrainGuy18]

oh bumer to here bout the vandals. is the S6 the only loco you guys have?

[ohiofoamer7612]

@TrainGuy18 No we have a whitcome 44 tonner (that does run but is on the wrong side of the culvert) Along with a steam engin (that needs restored) and 2 S2's

[TrainGuy18]

how bad is the washed-out culvert?

[TrainGuy18]

[GeileSexyZeiten]
