Very old response to Re: Passenger trains operational questions

[NW Mailing List]

Well, folks, I may be slow, but the memory is still strong.   After 
several years of digging through the multiple storage units, I found the 
slide I mention way back in 2017.     OK, I admit I only get to storage 
every few months so it really was not 'years' of searching more like a 
few day spread over the years.  ;-)

Here is the slide.  It was from a Blackhawk set and taken by the 
wonderful gentleman H. Reid.

Enjoy.

Take care
Bill
