Unfortunately, Andy's first name was ANTHONY, not Andrew... Andy was born around 1898/1899, and most likely passed away in the early 1990s. - - Paul Heh I guess reporting my finding his grave with death year of 1984 wasn't proof enough huh.. He was born Anthony, but if you called him Anthony or Tony he would become furious with you, and generally would not speak to you again if you did.. More than a dozen 50 year veterans have all shared this with me.. He only wanted to be known as Andy. He didn't want his Italian heritage to be known as Italians were generally profiled against in the early days of railroading. - -Pat **************Great Deals on Dell Laptops. Starting at $499.
