[PRCo] Re: Question

[Fred Schneider]

I'm going to pose an open question, Ed, and you can tell me as a  
friend of 34 years to stick a trolley pole where the sun doesn't  
shine or that the idea might just work ....

What are the chances of getting your cousin's husband and his Brill  
C-31 bus as a way of driving us around if we are a larger group?    
Ralph is a railfan and railfan is a bus fan and it would be a way to  
get everyone in one vehicle.   I understand we should all agree to  
pay him a prorata share of fuel, insurance, tires and maintenance  
costs.   If it costs Ralph a $3.00 a mile to run it, then we each  
ante up 10 cents a mile .... whatever.  I am assuming his gasoline  
alone is going to be in the vicinity of 50 to 60 cents a mile for  
that kind of a safari.    Maybe we even add in something toward  
buying his next bus....

And where is Derrick going to be on the day his list convenes in his  
home town?
