New enough GA and long enough. QPQ present. AGF offline source. No textual issues. If this is run after June 1, this should be formulated as the following given the impending merger: Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 23:35, 26 May 2022 (UTC)- ALT0a: ... that the Stony Brook Railroad existed as a company from 1845 to 2022 but never owned a single locomotive or ran a single train?
- Thanks for reviewing my DYKN. It is worth noting that while in the article I said the company would be merged, I'm not actually certain this will happen immediately. From what I've seen, the deal is to close on June 1. I'm not certain if the merger of Pan Am Systems and its subsidiaries into CSX will be immediate.
