I concur that net.railroad should become net.rec.railroad.  Since I've
been using the net, all the message traffic (3 boxcars and a caboose - ha ha)
has been rec oriented.  In fact, the original purpose: railroad services,
makes no sense, except for a local area.  Even then, most service interrup-
tions must be broadcast or responded to in real time, which this net is not.

As for the name of the group: "A rose by any other name ... "
