(erielack) Vol. 23, No. 2 Issue of The Diamond has arrived

["Todd Stearns" <toddsyr_@_twcny.rr.com>]

 Today I received my copy of the latest issue of The Diamond. It never fails 
to satisfy and this issue so far follows that rule as far as I've delved 
into it. I've only progressed as far as "From the Vestibule" by the editor 
Mike Schafer  and the first article, "Tempest In A Teapot" by Richard 
Palmer.

 "Tempest In A Teapot" will undoubtedly be my favorite part of this issue as 
it deals with the Central New York area, but that doesn't mean I won't fully 
enjoy the rest of the issue either. This article by Richard Palmer tells of 
some of the earliest steam powered railroading in my area and is not only 
filled with fact, but enjoyable to read, sometimes even eliciting a chuckle 
or two. I quote from Richard's article: "We traveled very fast then-five 
miles an hour." Indeed, for the era, it was rather fast.

 To everyone who made this issue possible, a big thanks!

                                                            Todd K. Stearns
