When I was a kid my mother took me on a train trip. Also, in the 50s I was on a train coming from Indiana back to New York State.

As a kid I watch the puffer bellies while I was riding the school bus. The road and train tracks ran parallel.

Old black smoke just belching out of her stack. Loved it. So sad, we don't have many trains anymore.
