  1. Right on Mr. Brewer!

    A first time visitor won’t return for next weeks sillyness for sure much less consider taking out a subscription to the quality publication that once was known as Trains, THE Magazine of Railroading…I rest my case.

  2. I agree with the other comment that these guys lame attempt at levity causes one to groan.
    They engage in sophmorhic banter that is empty of facts.
    What would improve this presentation would be a scripted program with details and leads that would provoke the listener to know more.
    Any humor should be understated in the text.
    Professionalism is a lost art today. It is easy for those who missed out on education by attending public schools, to settle for mediocrity(assuming they know what that is).
    Therefore, please set the bar high, and with some effort your weekly news video will not be received with a groan.

  3. I loved eating SOS in the mess hall while serving my country (US Army Transportation Corps 1964-1967) but the same old crappy beginning every week of the year…”until midnight”…common guys, time to get professional. Al Kalmbach and David P. Morgan woudda never stood for this kind of Kindergarten Talk!

  4. Good play Brian on the “Best” (Only)National Park in Ohio. But seriously, the Cuyahoga Valley National Park is a great park and the CV Scenic RR provides a great trip with good equip ment and with 765 it a MUST trip.
