Seems this thing pops up every 10-15 years going to a "better" home for restoration.   I have a feeling there will be urbex videos 30 years from now of the "abandoned flying yankee train" found in a industrial backlot, or buried in a scrapyard.    

Hope I'm wrong.

I have no detailed notes of the meeting, but a post on RyPN this morning notes that the Flying Yankee organization has been approved as the 'purchaser of record' from the state for the train

I do that anyway for most Zoom 'meetings'.  Laugh

I think that it's intended as an open-to-the-public meeting since it's being held at a public library and openly advertised.  So it might actually be beneficial to 'show the flag' and participate openly, not just at the end...

I assume that if any of us attend via zoom that you would recommend that we should turn off our personal video and microphones unless or until there's a Q and A period?
