<DIV>The Oregon Historical Quarterly for winter 2008 vol. 109, Number 4 has an
article on p. 598 called <EM>Economic Phoenix</EM> about A.B. Hammond who
developed the railroad to Astoria and ultimately Seaside and points further
south. His train first brought people flocking to the beach in summer,
then he began making more runs on Fridays and returns on Sundays and Monday
mornings to Portland hence the term "Daddy Trains" For people interested
in Oregon/Washington railroads and the "scroundrels" who developed
them it is good reading.</DIV>
