I think ABC should call itself "The Alphabet Route". ALLEN Date: 07/27/17 09:04 Re: ABC 1501 - Switching Barberton, Ohio Author: WM303 "Alphabet Route" is already spoken for.

------------------------------------------------------- > "Alphabet Route" is already spoken for. Your reference is to a no longer used term that was once used for a through route offered by a coalition of fallen flag railroads. Given those circumstances, I would say the name had been relinquished. Nevertheless, in retrospect my suggestion should have been to call it "The Alphabet Line". ALLEN |
