Greetings!

	Matt (MRB) had asked about the Verona line and I privately sent him
copies of our discussion about this line from way back!
	I mentioned that the line was finally closed on 1952.07.03.  I should
have clarified that and said that the *remnant* of the Verona line, the
78 Laketon shuttle, was closed on that 4th of July holiday.  Obviously,
the Verona line itself was closed much earlier; Matt mentioned about
1931!
	The shuttle should have gone at least as far as Snodders Switch to make
for another interesting destination sign!
