Post subject:  Tell Strasburg: Don't Cut Down the Trees!
Strasburg railroad is threatening to cut down the beautiful trees that stand thru the station area. call them and tell them not to do it. They are very nice, give good shade and have been there for almost 20 years. The place is going to look horrible without them. Who comes up with these crazy ideas anyway? whose idea was this anyway. I'm not going to give them my business anymore. we'll go instead to the m and h rr.

I think given their "track record", we should give the SRR a wide berth in judging their business practices. Its a little like questioning Einstein on physics.

It is quite curious how rumors get started. This one is a good one as it is completely opposite of what we are doing. In fact, we are planting more trees on the mall so that when the present ones die we still have shade.

All posts are clocked on West Coast time. Subtract three hours and you get 6:43 AM--sleeping in for railroad types!

thats a relief the trees are ok. Im glad One of the engine people told me so they must have been wrong with their story. I will be back with family to give you my business. I am sorry if this caused any grief.
