A few milestones this year

Unread post by Saturnalia »

Just some corny notes, but this year:

Amtrak Pere Marquette 30-year Anniversary: August 5th (1984)
Amtrak Blue Water 40-year Anniversary: September 15th (1974)

Note the current edition of the Blue Water, after the International, is turning 10 on April 25th (2004)

It's also the 25th Anniversary of the incorporation of the Coopersville & Marne Railway.

They are hoping to have the Flagg Coal #75 for the last weekend in June to help celebrate

Does PAT.C keep a record of how many times he's pooped? That's got to be a substantial number by now.

I am thinking MQT3001 needs to get a Chevy Pacer for his 16th birthday in March so as to maximize his foaming activities :shock:
