I didn't say it was you. I believe it was probably you. The guy lived in Waukegan. Did
you live there at that time?

I had my license for just over two months. The guy I was with may have had a car parked
at SHJ.

That sounds more likely. So the car *was* a 42/38 to Clearview and then made one more
round trip to Dormont. If the car would have wyed at Dormont, I would have walked the
length of Washington Road snapping photos.

But if it was you,  I must have not made any impression on you. My goal in life has
always been to be rich and obscure....I've achieved half of that! ;-)

Once I pull that box of transit goodies (including the 1974 Dayton timetables for R.T.
Morrow), I can confirm the identity of the mystery fan I spend that afternoon with.
