Re: PC: PCHS Newsletter name



I agree with you that 'PC Worms", "Metroliner" etc might better serve for
columns or departments within the Newsletter.  In order to Identify the
letter to novices, why not something like Penn Central Pride or Penn Central
Lamented or Penn Central...A Railroad Original...or whatever.  Casual
railfans who might be interested in joining might not "get" the Worms thing.

Just a thought.
