In addition to being the former Clearance Card editor for the Age of Steam Railroad Museum, I also initiated and edited, formerly, another museum (AOS) publication called Stack Talk. After starting Stack Talk I found at least 2-3 other publications using the same name. Don't remember who their publishers were.

"Along The Line", which was the New Haven's employee's magazine. It was used from 1920-something until 1959. We use the late 50s "ATL" logo, with a lantern drawing and script letters.

The name is not only historical and topical for us (we operate 20 miles of the old NYNH&H), but "accessible" enough for civilians to understand-- not railroad jargon. The group's newsletter is another PR tool, in my opinion.
