An Erie fan or a Lackawanna fan could say the same thing. Gone are NRRNJ and NY≷ green MU's; Stillwells; Middletown; The Scrantonian; the Cut Off -- the list goes on. Progress is change -- but change isn't necessarily progress. Randy Brown - -------------------------------------------------------------- I recently saw an email list where people are lamenting Erie E8 833 losing its Conrail paint! I guess there are Conrail fans out there but to me it represents the abandonment and downgrading of everthing that I grew up with. Now I know that from a business point of view this was necessary (although many have argued Conrail's abandonment policies were excessive, partly to prevent competition) but it hardly makes me want to romanticize Conrail.
