Well you know the whackos are FOS when they state "Atlantic Railway illegally built a rail spur inside the Edgewood Preserve State Forest." No one builds spurs anymore on LI.

Sounds like the "Friends of Edgewood Preserve" finally walked south far enough to discover the remainder of the Pilgrim spur. Anyone close to there want to walk the track and get a date off the rails?
