What you see in print is a press release from Railex massaged a little bit by a local reporter. Who paid for the press release? Railex, of course. What name do they want you to remember? You got it. Don't clutter up a press release with other names that might make readers forget who is paying for the press release.

Most of the public knows little and cares less about railroads except when train horns bother them or a train blocks the road they are traveling. Railfans make up a very small minority of the population. Most railway museums today say that well under ten percent of their admissions come from rail fans
