Guilford Rail Sightings / Pan Am Rail Sightings http://guilfordrailsightings.groups.io Rules for Posting THINK before you post and use common sense. There are employees on this list whose livelihoods can be affected by the wrong comments. Like all companies, there are good employees and bad employees. That goes for both labor and management, both of which are represented in this group. What may seem like an innocent comment to an outsider may be career changing to an employee. Avoid those, especially if it involves guesstimating the speed of a train. Insider business information is none of our business. Keep it off the list if you happen to know it; don't ask for it if you don't. This is a family-friendly group: keep all posts appropriate. Keep the posts on topic, namely anything current or past involving Boston & Maine, Maine Central, Springfield Terminal, Portland Terminal, Guilford, Pan Am Railways, Pan Am Southern. Also allowable are posts about neighboring railroads as they pertain to Pan Am, for example, a CSX or P&W train that will be interchanging with Pan Am. No politics. No religion. No non-railroad topics at all. No personal attacks on other members or their posts. Moderation, suspensions and banishment are at the discretion of the owners and moderators. Any comments, complaints or appeals should be addressed to main+owner@GuilfordRailSightings.groups.io This group and its related website are in no way connected with or affiliated with Pan Am Railways. Their web site is at http://www.panamrailways.com/ and their 24/7 emergency contact number is 1-800-955-9208. Of course, truly emegency situations should be reported to 911. In short and to repeat, THINK before you post and use common sense. (updated 4/18/19)

A subgroup has been created for general discussions about anything Pan Am Railways related. "This subgroup is for GENERAL DISCUSSION about Pan Am. Pan Am Southern, its predecessors and successors that does not pertain specifically to sightings. One prime example of a subject matter is the proposed sale to CSX of Pan Am Railways and the creation of the Berkshire & Eastern to operate Pan Am Southern, but other subjects may be brought up." This group is open to anyone already a member of GuilfordRailsightings.groups.io. The way subgroups work on Groups.io is that you must be a member of the parent group. To join this Discussion subgroup (or either of the other 2 subgroups already in existence), do one of the following: 1. Log into the group's web page at https://guilfordrailsightings.groups.io/g/main , then look at the menu bar on the left for Subgroups. Click on that and there are links there for the subgroups. Each has a link to the homepage of that subgroup, where you will find a 'Join' button. or 2. Let the moderators know of your interest to join a subgroup at main+owner@GuilfordRailSightings.groups.io and you will receive an Invitation email for that particular group. You will then 'Accept' that invitation. or 3. Send a blank email to Discussion+subscribe@GuilfordRailSightings.groups.io . All are welcome. Dave Grimm Owner GuilfordRailSightings.Groups.io
