Tim Fennell General But at least future generations will have #73 to enjoy! 11/1/2010 1:00:25 PM
John Burkhart General I grew up on Sturgis St., which was about 100 yards from where 73 and 75 used to run. My friends and I would regularly run out to these trains and get the engineer to sound the horn. These old horses flattened many a coin for me and my friends. Good memories of these old boys. 11/2/2022 2:17:56 AM
