WHY!?WHY DO KIDS THESE DAYS HATE STUFF LIKE THIS AND LISTEN TO SHITTY RAP MUSIC!?RAILROADS ARE DOOMED!THE ORM IS ROTTING AWAY AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE!WE NEED MORE VOLLENTEERS!I DONT WANT TO SEE A ROTTING PIECE OF HISTORY WHEN EVER I GO TO MY AUNTS!>:O GOD PLEASE HELP US!SOON,CHRISTIANITY WILL BE A THING OF THE PAST!DO YOU WANT THAT TO HAPPEN?!I DONT THINK SO!
Any idea on the status of these cars today? Particularly 501 and 118? 501 looks quite similar to the Milwaukee Electric 1100 series cars, I'd be fascinated to learn more about it. I understand that the carshed has been pulled down and some cars are tarped. Birney 1545 came from Jay Maeder, the visionary man who took over the last of the Milwaukee Electric lines, only to lose the lot after a fatal collision.

@KAWenzel Good to hear from you. Please ask your dad to check his e-mail (I know that's a sometime thing with him (;-]). I need his help identifying some of the other people in this video and also locations in another I just uploaded.
@DJHOGHEAD Yea, I know. Sometimes I scare myself (;-)). Seriously though, as long as there are people like you out there who enjoy my stuff I will keep on doing it -- at least until I run out of material or inspiration.

@Jollygreenslugg I really don't know current status of anything at ORM.
For more about the Speedrail accident see my video NMRA/Speedrail Sept. 2, 1950.
You will find it in the "Trains and More Trains" playlist.

Glory years, My Dad and I were members in the late 60s, right in my 4th to 9th year. I still have dreams about the place.
