Jim, yes I found a few shorts, not the major ones, but darn near, thing is, I conferred, conversed and otherwise hob-knobbed with my brother aficionados - Please come next time
Claus, Garden State Parkway South to Exit 4B is easy, mapquest where it will be next and it's a breeze, I agree an AMTRAK depot would be nice nearby

I agree, Claus.
I had a great time there, and I hope to see it grow into something more, but it would have been nice to be able to get there on Amtrak.
I have a good deal renting cars through my job, so I rented something small and cheap and left my car at home.
-you ever drive 200 miles in a tiny, cheap car? It takes something out of you!
In all seriousness, John Black did something great here and deserves a lot of thanks. It's something I never imagined happening on this side of the Pond again, and I've said as much on this forum.
Thanks for the kind words, Joe. Obviously you caught me on a good day!
