Understood - my late grandmother told me of going thru the Elroy-Sparta, WI 
section of the C&NW (now a hiking trail) & how conductor would come thru 
coaches to light kerosene lamps as they went thru the 3 tunnels!  Traveling to 
visit her in laCrosse from E. Dubuque was my 1st train trip via Twin Zephyr

When I read this, I thought of my late mother, who died at 96 in 2007.
She was a railfan who took me on my first long distance train trip when I was 
14 in 1967. We rode round trip on the CB&Q from Aurora,IL to Denver, and as our 
train pulled into Ottumwa, my Mom recalled her first train trip, also through 
Ottumwa on the CB&Q, but in 1916!

She remained interested in railroads right to the end, and I sure do miss her, 
and her tails of train travel, on the CB&Q and many other railroads.
