I'm reminded of the original novel entitled "MASH" where it describes how Trapper John got his name. Seems he made an advance on a young lass in the lavatory of a Boston and Maine train and when they were discovered, she rushed out screaming "He trapped me". Thanks for the memories.

I lived in Melrose (Cedar Park) 1953-1956. I was 3 thru 6 yrs old then. I remember seeing this train!
