Railing on Roger

Letter to the Editor Letter-to-the-editor |

Regarding Roger Marolt’s column (“Casey Jones, you better watch your speed,” April 7, The Aspen Times): baloney!

Your commentary about light rail is one of bigotry and misconceptions. Your dad and I once rode a light rail unit into Carbondale. We had “great expectations!” Unfortunately we can’t turn back the clock, and the track is now gone. “So get on the bus, Gus, and don’t you fuss, ‘cause rail is not for us!”
