[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Rustyrex I agree with several on here too, more articles about a certain shortline each month. Being biased, would love to see an updated feature article on the Twin Cities and Western and Minnesota Prairie Line in Minnesota. Others I would like to see is the Kansas & Oklahoma Railroad, a watco company based out of Wichita, KS and an updated article on the Kyle Railroad(last done in October 1988), Missouri Central operating ex- Rock Island across Missouri, and the IC&E/DM&E. Someone suggested just a look at RailAmerica itself, I really like this idea, maybe do Watco, Pioneer and others each month or so. Addtional articles on railroads/specific lines I would like to see which sometimes get overlooked: --KCS's Gateway Western current operations(done by Trains in late 1992, in the excellent three part CMNW/GWWR articles) --UP's upgraded Golden State Route from Topeka, KS to Tucumcari, NM --UP's also upgraded Kansas Pacific Line from Topeka, KS west to Denver, CO --Various BNSF, UP Midwestern branch line operations Also love the idea of more articles on the employee's themselves. There may have been years of a few old heads who dreaded talking about their job, but there are quite a few in the industry today who really take pride in talking about their job and what they do, as bad and frustrating the day could get, it still makes them feel good when someone knows we appreciate what they do. Trains has really catered in the last few years to the railfan who really wants to know all the details and information and what they actually want to see, rather than what they think would go great in a magazine. This is what makes Trains stand out from the rest as the top railfan magazine. Thanks guys! [/quote]Ladies and Gentlemen, I do believe that we have a gentleman and a scholar in the forum[tup]
