Re: (erielack) Last train on West End (4)



Jim,
Sorry...I don't have the capability to scan anything in at this point, but I 
do show at Marion from time-to-time (they show slides on the 3rd Saturday of 
every month for anyone who's in the area)...

With the ELHS Annual to be in Kent, OH. next year, this would be a good 
opportunity to come out to potentially see some of what used to run out 
there at that time also...
