>> Al was one of several "old timers" I questioned
about their knowledge of the Hooppole, Yorktown & Tampico but remembered very
little of it (folded 3/29/1951); wonder if I'm starting another "thread"? <<
If you *are* starting another thread, Bob -
I'll have to get busy unpacking the moving boxes some more. Somewhere I have a
Railroad Magazine withsomething like a 3-page article from about 1950.
As you'll recall, Freeman Hubbard's Railroad was more flavorful than factual
(even when he wasn't quite the editor yet), so it may not be all that useful
depending on what questions come up. All this came back to my mind 22 years ago
when we suddenly wound up with a president born in Tampico.
So - let me know if I have to go digging in boxes <chuckle>
