A little off our normal roads (but close enough). Wondering if Harry can share any treasured stories about this beauty?  

 

John:

After service on NS Rwy., the rail busses went to Cuba (or Cuber

as JFK pronounced it).  A Beach Division conductor had lost a leg

in an railroad accident, but the old NS allowed him to continue service

on the rail busses.  When the rail service on the Beach Division was

eliminated, he became conductor on the local freight.  Bet that

wouldn't happen today.                      Harry
