BULLSHEET DOWN!

The “freight trains” feature at bullsheet is down? What’s going on? Is Allen taking the site off-line? Is he still going to be publishing the newsletter over the internet at least (the hard-print published version ended 9/05)? Anybody know?

Bullsheet is a great source of east coast railroad information and news, with focus centered around the old B&O mainlines, for those of you who don’t know. Pretty interesting stuff.

I want more info on this how do you get the bullsheet.

Looks like the problem is just a short term issue. Saw Allan has this posted on his site.

It is a great website. If only the NS and CN had similar type coverage. My life would then be complete. Wow…what a shallow life I lead!
