Last night on PBS "American Experance" they mentioned that Malcom X father was Mysterously ran over by streetcar in Lansing or East Deering despite the cars having cowcatchers. They also mentioned that Malcom X (Malcom Little) worked as a cook for the New Haven on there trains to Boston. <br />Now there must have been some intresting conversations on that train[8)]. <br />It is also intresting to note that even today there are many sleeping car porters on Amtrak that are black but even today there "seems" that there are not that many black conducters in proportion to the population .
