I remember in the 1950's sending away for a packet of information on railroading from the AAR. I waited and checked the mailbox everyday like Ralphie waiting for his decoder ring in Christmas Story...Here I am decades later and find that a Class One is actually reaching out to those who may ultimately either work for or become a fan of the road...of this dreams are made..

Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.

That's wonderful! CP has a tradition of tradition, if you know what I mean. Very proactive of them to get started young. They might just raise a generation of young Canadians who, in their politics and practices, will have a much better idea about what a railway is and what it can do. I wish them well and wish some of the lines down here would do similar acts. - a.s.
