[Scan-DC] Saturday events of interest

[Blair Thompson]

Off-topic: years and years and years ago, I knew a guy working at (what was then) AAFB who had an Ercoupe.

More off-topic: Amtrak locomotive number 4, which was at the end of the train taking Republicans to the Greenbrier last week, was the second unit on northbound Amtrak train 20 Thursday morning. I saw it from the Braddock Road Metrorail stop. Being at the rear, it sustained no damage in the collision. Amtrak 20 left Alexandria 24 minutes early Thursday. Yes, early. If you still have your paper timetables, you can read in the fine print, "Stops only to discharge passengers; train may leave before time shown."
