For US members, it seems PBS is going to be airing an episode of "American Experience" on hobos next monday.

I think the program has aired previously. The promo I saw indicated that there is lots of cool old train footage. For those modeling in the Hobo era, there could be useful information for layout detailing.

The American Experience should be mandatory viewing for kids in HS. I bet they would learn a helluva lot more than sitting there pretending they're listening to the teacher....
