Too bad you didn't make it. After the meeting David Gunn came through on the Southwest Chief
and stopped having dinner in the Beech Grove to talk with our group on the ballast at the end of the platform.

Just be around the next time he leaves LAX on Train 4 through Fullerton. This is the second time I have been with him in Fullerton. Gunn gets out here at least once a year.

No telling,
just keep a look out on the boards daily for his where abouts. Where the Beech Grove goes Gunn will either be on it or boarding on the end point for his next trip.
