Nope, that must have been Steve H. I told him about how seashore can teach you some cool trades, wood working, machine shop, overhead, track, and more.

oh ok cause i figured you were and i was gonna say we've met how do you not know i'm james lil bro?

I did not know he had a brother. Have a fun time at the museum. I will be up there the weekend of Aug. 6 & 6, then 13 & 14.
I live in Boston.

i'm gonna try togo up the 6th but i'll have to leave scout camp a day early....but i'll try

who are you anyway? we may have met.......

Hope to see you the weekend of the 6th. My name is Doug and I'm a trustee, track worker, fundraiser, trackless dept, project manager 41, operations.

Announcement: Look for the July/August Dispatch for the insert on how everyone can help out the trackless extension. Also the Sept/Oct. one will sport an insert on how everyone can help out the future Coney Island site & barn.

why was the trackless wire even put up if you can't run anything on it cause there's no loops?

The trackless wire was strung in the early 1970's before I was even born. They made a great effort to pull the poles and turn the coach or just back the coach up the other way. Today we would not do this for that damages the poles. We will raise the funds to extend and build proper loops. I am very excited about this project.
