The Nickel Plate Railroad closed. So did the Penn Central and the NY Central. The B & O was sold to the C & O. That is no longer in existence either. Bangor & Aroostook folded their tent. Louisville and Nashville (L&N) is gone. Norfolk and Western is kaput. The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe is only a memory. I am not sure about the Lehigh Valley R R. Grand Trunk, Illinois Central, and Reading R.Rs are all gone. This is just for Goro, who thinks a company going under is extremely important to all Prowler owners. And yet, life goes on. Most of the companies that built stage coaches are no longer in business. |

Never heard of them, until now. I'm surprised they lasted this long and I didn't know it. |

I still prefer when they wear shirts that say 'GUESS' there ... can't quite figure out why I get slapped for saying things like: 'oh ... I'd say 34C ... or like 36DD' ... isn;t that what we are SUPPOSED to be guessing?!? |

I was in the elevator the other day when it stopped on the 5th floor. A beautiful young lady with rather large attributes got in beside me and said "Push one please". Apparently I pushed the wrong one. Good news is that I was able to see a little bit from my right eye this morning so the swelling must be going down. Hehe. Jer |

I am not sure about the Lehigh Valley R R. Grand Trunk, Illinois Central, and Reading R.Rs are all gone. Those railroads didn't shut down, they were merged into larger systems. As to the Santa Fe, it merged into a system called BNSF, which most people think stands for "Burlington Northern Santa Fe." What it REALLY stands for is "Big New Santa Fe"!

I am sure SEARS will be purchased by someone, also. The Craftsman brand is worth some serious $. Amazon is starting to open more brick and mortar stores, go figure! |
