I'm sad to announce the passing of Zack Willohite who was a long time poster here in the halcyon days of usenet. Zack posted under the name of Bus Dude. He was a long time transit fan and owner of a retired transit coach. Zack and Jim Hambre were killed in the derailment of Amtrak Cascades Train 501 yesterday.
RIP Zack and Jim
RIP Zack and Jim
