This one I'm not sure I should post but some of you have asked in all  
sincerity, "How is Harold Geisenheimer?"
The enclosed picture of Harold (on the left) and Carle Salley (the  
one time head of PAT's Early Action Program) was taken the day of the  
Broad Street LRT opening last summer in Newark, New Jersey.   That  
was one blistering hot day.   How hot?   Well, so hot that it was  
beyond the design capability for the constant tensioning of the  
Hudson-Bergen Light Rail line catenary.   The catenary sagged, a  
pantography caught it and tore down the wires.   We were forced to  
detour back to Hoboken using the jitney buses on Bergenline Avenue.    
A kid on our bus threw up on the bus.   The windows were sealed  
shut.  The AC didn't work.  And this picture was at the end of the  
day at NJT's Broad Street Station (nee Lackawanna) in Newark.  If the  
guys looking like they are dragging, guess why.
