    I think our system is still pedal powered, and as far as I know, y2k
only afftects computers...   :-)

    Anyway, if the pedal falls off or something, why not just run only one
really long train on each line.  That way there is less/no chance of
collisions and signals wouldn't matter.  This just means that everyone has
to catch it at once!   ~:-)
