How'd we miss?  I lived in Lynbrook from 1949 (age 6) till leaving for
college (1961), rode my bike to Rockville Centre for the switching,
Malverne/Hempstead Ave, just to hear a whistle blow and see/hear
gates/lights/bells, etc, etc.  Come to think of it, in the 2nd or 3rd grade
around 1951 at West End School there was a kid named Patricia Guthrie . . .
?
