Trainnews - volume 2 - issue 48 - 02/26/09

Notice - Trainnews will again be published at odd times starting 2/27/09 through 3/7/09 as your pubisher is on another business trip. I will be in the Eastern Pacific and will post as I have time.


Editor's Note - Please send newsworthy photos to trainnews@att.net, please include name, location and narrative so folks know what, where and why it is newsworthy. Thank you to those who have sent pics, I wonder if some folks in the Eastern US or oversees can send some for added interest. Please send new photos as we are running out again. Thank you for the continued support with the photos, while not all have been newsworthy they are interesting and will be published eventually
