I noticed the maple apple ice cream, pumpkin pie, turkey and dressing. Yummm. The date at the bottom appears to be Thanksgiving time.

I remember traveling every Summer on the train with my Aunt or Mother or Grandfather heading out to the family farm in Rathdrum Idaho where my grandparents lived. ARound mid to late 1950s. I was around 8 years old.

Train would leave out of Chicago to Spokane. Take about two days.

Dining Car was really elegant with real table cloths, silver ware. We had our own rooms to sleep. Observation car.

Very care free simple times.
