A DECLARATION OF GARDEN RAILROADANCE <br /> <br />When in the Course of Garden Railway events, it becomes necessary for one people to solidify the steel (brass) bands which have connected them with their Trains, and to assume among the powers of the tracks, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Microferroquinology entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the hobby. <br /> <br />We hold these trains to be self-evident, that all boys and girls are created equal, that they are endowed by their Grandparents with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Garden Railways and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, garden railroads are instituted in gardens, deriving their just Powers from the current of the power pack, -- That whenever any Form of parenting becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the Grandfather to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Garden Railway, laying its tracks on such roadbed and organizing its consists in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Merriment and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Garden Railways long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that children are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by demanding the a garden railway of their own. But when a long train of abuses, usurpations and boxcars, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to demand a place at their Grandfather's side, and to provide new guards for their future love of the hobby -- Such has been the patient sufferance of these children; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former status en re the railroad. -- The history of the present Grandfather is a history of repeated great kindness and attention to detail, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute love over these children. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world. <br /> <br />LET THEM HAVE THEIR RIGHTS!!!! <br /> <br />
