Good day
We have sun and 60 degrees F in southeast Ohio.
I talked briefly with DrWayne last night. He has gone downhill rapidly. He acted like he knew me but I think it was confusion. His wife doesn't have much help and she says he needs to be monitored 24/7 now. I am heartbroken, I have lost a great friend and the Gauge has lost a great contributor and modeler. Here is a photo taken June 11, 2009 at the Kiski Junction, 6 months before I retired. Wayne is on the left and CNNutbar is on the right. Adding to my sorrow is the railroad we worked so hard to build is now a bicycle trail. The railroad only survived a few years after I retired, losing all of its shippers and bridge problems drove the spike through her heart.
