One good thing Mr. P did was show Mrs. Williams the door, only after she left Rome burning..

Kelly, to add he also helped spin off the freight side of the LIRR what is now New York & Atlantic Railway. Touché about the diesel fleet.

The photographer and RR.net member was part of the crew that day.
