When I was about 10 or 12 yrs old, my parents gave me an old crank up phonograph with a bunch of old records in the wooden cabinet beneath. Among them was this recording "The 5:15". I palyed it many times and remember it to this day. I'd love to have al that stuff, but when I went in the USAF in 1955, my mom 'cleaned' my room and gave it to hte church rummage sale....... sic transit... regards, Walt Smith >From: Michael Sheehy <njnyrr_@_optonline.net> >Reply-To: "EL Mail List" <erielack_@_lists.elhts.org> >To: EL Mail List <erielack_@_lists.elhts.org> >Subject: (erielack) Odd eBay item >Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2007 20:33:52 -0400 > >Interesting sheet music cover that has a very old schedule for the NJ&NY >Pascack Valley Line and New City Branch on the cover... > >http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230166983468&ssPageName=A >DME:B:SS:US:1 >eBay poster said: >This auction is for large format sheet music for ON THE 5.15, lyric by >Stanley Murphy, music Henry I.
