Hey I am out here Hobing on the rails so I might as well write about what I see,
So were do I start? I am thinking about Human Intrest Storys about the railroad people that I meet and the towns that I go through.

Yeah and get an editor, oh you might need a lawyer, too, if you're out hoboing because sooner or later, you're gonna get caught. Might want to look into Spellchecker, too.

Mark,

After a story is submitted, how long should the author have to wait for a response from the editor?

I think the chances of Trains printing an article supporting modern day hoboing
are 2. Slim and None, and Slim just broke his leg on the backstretch.
