  If Mr. Pate did not authorize the scrapping of the engine in Peoria, then yes, he would deserve an apology.  If on the other hand, he DID authorize the scrapping of one of only three existing mainline Rock Island steam locomotives, then that is another matter.

  I worked in Rock Island Public Relations 1951 to 1958 under William Edward Hayes, Executive Assistant.  I think the comments about Mr. Pate, who succeeded Bill Hayes, are slanderous, and are  an illustration of erroneous assumptions of the railfan  community.Mr. Pate deserves an apology.
