[PRR-talk] Announcing ALPHABETROUTE.COM

[jerry at pennsyrr.com]

I am pleased to formally announce AlphabetRoute.com, a web site of
historical and modeling information for the member railroads of The
Alphabet Route... The NKP, W&LE, P&WV, WM, RDG, CNJ, L&HR, and NYNH&H.

As the operator of the widely popular Pennsylvania Railroad web site,
Keystone Crossings (http://kc.pennsyrr.com), my own modeling needs found
me looking for accurate modeling information for the historically local
interchange railroads and found online sources to be lacking.

To that end, I discussed the prospect of establishing a similar site for
the Alphabet Route with a local WM / RDG modeler, Jeff Warner. Jeff not
only liked the idea, but volunteered to take on the head webmaster duties
as well.

For the past year Jeff, with the help of a staff of topic specialists, has
developed the initial site. It has been publicly available since the
spring of 2007, but it is only now that we are "advertising" it.

So please pass the word that the curtain is unveiled on this new site,
located at http://www.alphabetroute.com . Please feel free to repost this
message to other mailing lists and forums as appropriate.

Jeff has done a superb job in getting the site to this point. It is now up
to you, the users, to visit the site and make it a success. Thank you!
