Re: Future Car

More looks like a fancy dune buggy than a car. Must be one of those cars that didn't make it to the production line, since it was labeled "lame"

Thats actually a very stupid way of doing it. If they were to fall from where they were sitting, they probably would of been instant track kill.

Re: Durand Union Station Closed

Its my pleasure to help. I just love being at that place. Yea there may not be a lot of trains going by there, its the atmosphere that makes me keep coming back.

I would return sometime but with my bike out of commission(back tire blew out) I may have to wait a while before returning to volunteer.
