Hi Bob,
If you subscribe to digest form, there is a posting with every message that
gives you the opportunity to unsubscribe, and in the original welcome
message, it gives you the same information. Normally, in my other lists
taglines, I do give subscribing and unsubscribing info, but since this is a
very NEW list, and I have recently created 5 other new lists along with this
one, I haven't had a chance to do all of the things I'd like. Hopefully,
that will come soon, though. :o)
The description of the list, according to RootsWeb, is as follows.....

"PA-RAILROADS. A mailing list for anyone with a genealogical interest in
the old railroads of Pennsylvania and the people who worked for them."

As far as chatter goes, I only ask, that if you DO post something "off
topic" that you label the subject line as just that, "off topic", and that
it at least SOMEHOW pertain to genealogy. Occasionally I, myself, will post
something that doesn't necessarily relate to railroads or to Pennsylvania,
but I hope that it may help in some other aspect of your research.
I sure hope this has helped to answer some of your questions, and, please,
if you ever have any questions or problems, don't hesitate to let me know,
OK?? You will find my email address at the bottom of every mailing! :o)

Take care,

Diana

Why don't you put a message trailer to tell how to unsub.

Also, your list description has nothing telling what the list is about.
Is the list for general PA railroad chatter or is it for genealogy and
railroads?

If the former, there are many other lists not on rootsweb that cover
most railroads in PA and probably a PA list also.
