[Yet earlier Brian has vainly tried to portray himself as Roaring Camp's savior against the RTC's "60-trains-a-day" schedule, arguing that a commuter train would displace them from the Boardwalk stop (even while he himself has argued that the "most dangerous roundabout in America" calls for and end to their operation there), yet he doesn't make a peep about that in this post. Clearly Brian is no fan of Roaring Camp's beach train]
There, I fixed it for you, Brian.
