Hobo Jungle
The Rarest of the Rare!!
Now in my hot little hands!
A 1910 timetable from my 27-mile shortline.
Connections with the DL&W and the P&R RR in Bloomsburg, the SB&B (another shortline) at Paper Mill, and from the P&R for another 2 miles, the Pennsy on the other side of the Susquehanna.
Grand and invigorating! Let the traveler be impressed!
What they failed to publicize, (and which every hobo knew), was the Friday night coach full of prostitutes from Philadelphia, come to help relieve the boys in the logging camps of their hard-earned paychecks!

Saturday I tried to log on and got a sign saying we were moving. Where are we now?
Slow? I have dial up. Speed seems normal to me. What do you guys have, T3 connections?
When I posted the above I got dumped.

Success 12:23 pm. Took -2 minutes. Faster than the speed of light.
Kidding aside, this is s...l...o...w. I eat my words. Crunch, crunch. Mmmmm! Never ate laughing smiley faces before. They are crunchy.

They were desperate for business. The original plan was to switch-back up North Mountain to the coal fields at Bernice, (sounds like 'furnace'), but were beaten by the Lehigh Valley RR. The logging ran out shortly thereafter, leaving only farming and passenger business. The B&S was gone by 1927.
Look at the opening.They were advertising like a scenic/tourist railroad in 1910 [?].

Man, this is gettin' frustratin'. I think this server, phpBB, still has some kind of glitch. Takes me 5 minutes to log in, and sometimes when I click a forum or thread, I get a server error, or even a blank white screen for a couple of minutes. It was workin' great 'til they updated on Saturday. 
If you agree with the Progressives, it's freedom of speech. If you disagree, it's hate speech. There are no alternatives.
