I was 7 when I had my first train ride and went with my grandmother and aunt to visit my cousins in Montana. We took the Rock Island from Des Moines to St. Paul. St. Paul Union Station had the William Crooks inside on display. I had never seen anything so shiny. While waiting for the Olympian Hiawatha, I was looking out the windows over the tracks and heard a loud barking sound. It was a steam locomotive with a freight. That was a real treat since I grew up on Rock Island's K&D that went to diesel early. The Olympian Hiawatha had the full length domes. I watched from up there as our diesels were traded out for a Little Joe. My favorite diner menu item was BLT's. _._,_._,_ Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
