  12. I can't offer the detail that Len provided, but for contrast consider
  13. that in 1937 the PRR operated 645 scheduled trains during a typical
  14. 24 hour period in and out of Pennsylvania Station in New York City.

  17. Any idea how many trains were running out of Grand Central Station at
  18. that time? I assume that a fair number of the new trains are descendants
  19. of trains that stopped there.
