Listers, Did anyone catch this in todays dispatch. Not only is it amusing, but it was proven wrong staistically over 15 years ago. One fun story I heard after...
I'm sure what she meant to say was that light rail causes negroes. I heard that a lot when they were building out to Hunt Valley. Thankfully the state ignored...
You don't need to have the brothers come up from Baltimore to steal your television set; there are plenty of people (of all races too) that can do that quite...
Now there's an opposition slogan: Don't take jobs from our local crooks! Speaking of which, how's the stadium coming along? Michael Lijewski Fallston, MD ...

Not much reason for me to venture up that way anymore. Hey, is York Railway doing anything with its state money yet? Any interesting MOW work going on? Michael...
I wanted to verify my facts before posting this but our company (located in Timonium, MD) had a meeting with the Hunt Valley Business Forum just prior to the...
That's interesting, albeit undocumented. Any real numbers? Like how many crimes: 5, 25, 100, 1,000? Was there a corresponding drop in sales? I remember working...
I too have heard this however this might have something to do with the dumpy old mall being closed and demolished about the same time. Matthew Mummert...
That could possibly explain Hunt Valley (although it was mostly complete) but not Timonium. ________________________________ From: RRofYork@yahoogroups.com on...
Driving home today I saw quite a bit of activity off of Loucks Mill Road off of Arch Street in the area where the WM turntable was located. Quite a bit of the...
Greg and list, Here's what I know. TRAC from harrisburg has been contracted to do the railroad construction work. My souces tell me that around there is...
What is the status of these two rail lines? I presume they are dormant, but any reasonable plans for the future? Is the dinner train equipment still parked...
Re: the Northern Central, I think most, if not all of the dinner train equipment has been removed from New Freedom. The rail line is owned by the County of...
Just as a follow-up, I drove down to New Freedom today, and none of the dinner train equipment remains in New Freedom. There is a single PRR caboose on display...
As Greg explained, you can find information on whats planned to be done to the NCR on www.codoruscreekrailway.com As for equipment in New Freedom, the PRR...
Hey Guys: Not sure if it's TRAC or Amtrac doing the work - I think its Amtrac. This is all part of the restoration/retrofit of the Cole Steel property on...
While driving by the Arch Street stadium construction site the last two days, I noticed brick archwork that looks as thought it might have been a tunnel under...
Gary, I haven't been down to look at what you are referring to, but I would assume that there almost had to be some arrangements for the rail workers to get...
Thanks for your reply Greg. That is my assumption based on what little I can see. Gary E. Heiland ... would ... workers ... enters ... logical ... last ... ...
Gary, I've posted two photos of this tunnel in the Photos area of this group's web site. The archway actually lines up with the west end of the two-story...
Gary, Greg, et al: The tunnel was a suprise. I've been meaning to get down and take some good photos and stay on top of the excavation. Historic York is...
I added 2 clips with Gregs photos from the 1894 sanborn map in the area where I "think" the tunnel was found....I'm guessing from memory here. Anyway, looks...
Went to historical society - the clip taht I posted of the 1894 Sanborn labels the building as "Ice Ho.". Also measured the tunnel - it's about 4 feet at...
I bet it's the last coal powered ice ho in the region! Seriously though, thanks for the updates. I can't get up that way half as much as I'd like to, so it's...
