Greetings

Hi Pjasper7, I'm an editor on Wikipedia interested in trains (if it wasn't obvious by my username), and I noticed you're working on Rail transportation in the United States. That page is on my watchlist, so I monitor changes made to it. I just wanted to stop by and offer you any assistance or answers to questions you might have about the subject matter. I also have access to The Wikipedia Library, which gives me access to a great deal of references that may be of use to you; I've also got some books in my personal library on rail transportation in the United States. You can send me a message on my talk page, or post questions or comments related to editing the article on the article's talk page, though I'm sure your professor has already mentioned that to you. I hope you have a good time with this class, and maybe even choose to continue being a Wikipedia editor! Trainsandotherthings (talk) 16:32, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

hello, while I was going to do this topic I switched my assigned article as it seemed like more clear edits could be made to it and it went along better with my class. Thank you for your message though. I love trains so maybe I will be back on this page soon. Thank You! Pjasper7 (talk) 22:41, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
