Well, it looks like the horn theives have struck again. From the BR&W Yahoo Grpup: Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2003 21:39:49 -0400 From: "Kermit Geary Jr" Subject: Stolen Horns Between Friday June 27, 2003 and Monday June 30, 2003, The SMS Lines Railroad was the victim of a theft of the air horns from their fleet of locomotives at their Pureland NJ facility. Not only did the theives remove the airhorns, but much damage was done to the cabs of the locomotives. These thugs also attempted to remove the bells, but were unsuccessful. They did manage to damage the mountings and brackets. The horns that were removed are listed as follows: 1) Leslie model 200 2) Leslie model SL3a (3 chime) 3) Nathan P-5 (has broken casting from being pried off..was welded to roof) 4) Nathan M-3 (CN style) The railroad is offering a reward for the return of these pieces. So, what is the result of this action by a thug or a group of thugs? The railroad has posted a NO-Railfan policy. The last Field day was really the Last One....EVER.... No more open houses, tours or friendly employees. If anyone knows anything about this incident, NOW is the time to come forward and identify these thugs.
