Special Notice
This is the final edition of 'Trainnews'. I picked up gathering news articles over 16 years ago and the time has flown by. But as some one once said all good things must come to an end, and so this will be the last publication.
I would like to thank Alex Mayes, Norm Schultze and the others, whom over the years have contributed to this publication and also to Dave
Curley for the help and support putting this service online.
The time has come for me to return to trackside and 'roll the freights by', spend time with the grand kids and enjoy my other interests.
If anyone is interested in continuing the service contact me at admin@trainnews.org to explore options.
Thanks Timl

I've been a follower of Train News for all of that sixteen years, since before I retired. I considered it to be a valuable source of information on current railroad topics. It was also required reading for my rail planning staff back then, as well.
I know the work that goes into this kind of on-line production week after week. My son produces on-line rail and otherhistoy content, so I have appreciated the hard work and discipline needed to do something like this, so well.
Congratulations on your "retirement" from producing Train News. And I do hope that some of our younger generation of rails and railfans take up your offer to carry on with this great source of rail news.
