Todd,
If you do get up here, let me know, maybe we can meet up. The SRNJ is not railfan friendly as they used to be. They had quite a bit of vandalism and theft and they now don't allow railfans on the property.

Deal! The bride and I occasionally take a few days and spend time in Avalon, but it's been a couple of years since we've been there. I'll keep you posted, Bruce.

That winter was just brutal. I still remember it and I was only 11 at the time. Most snow that I can remember and it hung around for a long time. Seems there was one day I remember being -15 F with a wind chill to -40. Definitely not days to double dog dare someone to put their tongue on a flag pole!
