The center attraction of the above 1996 image, shot by an unknown photographer somewhere on the Adirondak Railway, is a 1959 Edsel Station Wagon, with an Alco something-or-another in back. The loco's ID doesn't matter because Staff wants to talk about evolution of the Edsel. Back in '59, folks thought that its jet-engine-intake of a grill was pretty stupid looking. Today, the Edsel's mouth has mutated into several overblown intakes, AND the darn cars sell! We regard this as another sign of civilization's decline. Quick quiz: Which of the below photos depicts a basking shark?
