[We picked up grandson Alex at the Randolph Train Station the other day. He was returning from visiting his cousin in New Haven for a few days. You can’t stand on a train platform, hearing that lonesome whistle blow, without being reminded of what life could be like if Americans had the same fascination with trains that they do with automobiles. In this story SB Bill (Hinesburg SBs) helps us remember what we thought we forgot. SB SM]

I’ve known Bill for years, have listened to and read many of his stories, but this is my all-time favorite – glad to see the BTV train to NYP back – and I look forward to more train trips. Thanks Bill
