I'm only a bit upset that I didn't have knowledge of a train such as the Liberty Limited, coming to Philadelphia on the NEC. I only live about 15 mins from the NEC, and I also live in Philadelphia, so I'm really surprised I didn't hear about that one. I need to get out more huh?....lol LORD HELP US ALL TO BE ORIGINAL AND NOT CRISPY!!! please? Sarah J.M.

If you notice there were only 4 others at the Eddystone train station to witness this great train. In the future I will do my best to post this type of info here.
