He can be reached through Facebook.

I don’t know him but he posts regularly in rail preservation / photography sites.

I can be contacted at my day job as Railroad Collections Archivist for the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission at the Pennsylvania State Archives in Harrisburg, Pa. Or PM me through messages at rypn.org.

The title of this thread scared the crap outta me.

I was afraid something happened to him.

Thank goodness that's not the case!

Had me scared, too! The reports of my demise were greatly exaggerated! :-)

He's not allowed to croak until he gets his long-threatened magnum opus on the Strasburg RR published.

On the other hand, burying yourselves in the State Archives is probably as close to volunteering to be the guard for Jack Benny's safe for protection against the "real world" these "interesting times" days.

Many thx Sandy. We have been acquainted since 1985 so you know me well! The Strasburg RR book is an ongoing project but also, too, are five other book projects.

Since the PA State Archives is closed I have been teleworking from home since March 2020. So there's no going into the stacks for the foreseeable future! lol
