    Western Pennsylvania Model Railroad Museum

    I had the good fortune of being able to visit the Western Pennsylvania Model Railroad Museum in Gibsonia, Pa today. I must say I didn't allow myself enough time. Anyone within 250 miles of Pittsburgh should plan on visiting, and I would recommend getting there when they open, because if you...

    Amtrak Train Hit

    Another driver runs around the gates and hits a train, 5 people hurt, but no charges are likely to be filed. We spend millions of dollars a year trying to make crossings safe yet when drivers do stupid things they don't get a citation. If the crossing laws were enforced we wouldn't need gates...
