Day Two Hundred Seventy Three 2010

Riding The Rails

Grand kids Elijah and Shelby checked out a vintage piece of L&N railroad history at the depot this afternoon.

I think they were impressed by its size. Pretty cool. Did people who had to travel long distances this way think it was fun way back then? I'm sure these two would have been asking, Are we there yet?

Kay R. said...: Yes, this is a permanent display. The depot historians are working hard to restore the train cars. Lately vandals have broken the origianl windows in one of the cars and the glass had to be replaced but it'll never be the same. The Herald Citizen ran a story in yesterday's paper about the renovations. It's pretty cool.; October 1, 2010 at 8:47 AM
Jane said...: That upsets me about the vandalism. People can be so mean! We enjoy visiting the trains now & then, too!; October 2, 2010 at 10:06 PM
