RE: (erielack) Ghost Train



Perhaps my point is that I'd rather err on the side of being inclusionary
rather than seeing someone blasting away at a previous email because it
didn't meet their personal criteria for relevance.  If the subject is of
interest there will be additional emails; if not, there will be silence.
That's democracy.

I wouldn't go THAT far to say "ANY" rail-related subject. A certain degree
of levity is offered, but we'd like to stick to the topic of the list - EL
and predecessors (and the Ghost Train story did involve the Erie)...
