I've never heard of the Examiner, it seems like an internet attempt at a online USA Today style news service. It would be nice if they at least got the name right.

And what is so infamous about the Wilmington AND Western. Every time I've been there it seemed to be a well-run operation. Or is the reporter making an un-printed reference to all the floods and bridge problems? Our "friends" in the media-

Ahh, the "infamous" is gone. I had asked about it in the comments.

Sheesh.

Gentlemen:

I just deleted two posts on the merits (and or demerits) of the Baltimore Examiner websites and the Washington Times. This is not a forum for the discussion of newspapers.

There's so many attention-grabbing excursions to choose. Take a theme ride such as the Civil War Skirmish Weekend. A passenger will be traveling with soldiers for a 2¼-hour round-trip ride to the site of a live civil war skirmish. Once onboard, the passenger will have the opportunity of conversing with re-enactors wearing authentic costumes.

"A" passenger, "The" passenger!?!

Apparently it's a private charter or they have an extremely low ticket sales goal, I'm not sure which. ;)
