[pct-l] PCT post office closures

[John Abela]

There is a thread on Facebook about this:

(hopefully that works)

Castellow can be moved up to Dunsmuir (6 miles North), Old Station I
am not sure if there is even going to be a viable alternate for, and I
do not even want to think about an alternative for Stehekin... anybody
know about alternatives for these last two spots?
