railroad nicknames-Membership invitation extended to John

[NW Mailing List]

John,
On a more serious subject let me be the first old boy to invite you back to the N&WHS. I see you dropped your membership after being a loyal member for 17 years. Recently I've read that former members dropped for one reason or another. Seemed a common reason was that they felt unneeded. I think the new leadership team may be more receptive to your views and offers to write news articles or to share photos. In a nutshell we want you and your friends to help the Society grow!
Regards,
Norris

My grandfather was a signal maintainer for the Erie RR in Youngstown, Ohio.  He told me that the Erie guys called the Lake Erie & Western (later NKP) the leave early and walk.
