But women are members of the organization, and at least one has been very active in north state railroad policy, so she's more of the brains than the brawn. ;^)<BR/><BR/>Kelly - Yeah, the steam whistles are so cool. I'm not a fan of the deafening air horns on the diesels though.USelainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15551995221350532168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7345176050895872295.post-32433446466605269032008-07-16T14:11:00.000-07:002008-07-16T14:11:00.000-07:00We have a train line through our town, and I love ...We have a train line through our town, and I love the sound of the train whistles.

When I lived in Sacramento, the freight trains rolled right through midtown, and seemed miles long. <BR/><BR/>Olivier - The tourist train here doesn't run so much anymore, but we hope it will come back.<BR/><BR/>Marie - Thank you for beaming onto my blog! I miss your voice at PDP too.<BR/><BR/>Barbara - You are lucky to live so close to the big museum by the river. Thanks for visiting.<BR/><BR/>Halcyon - The steam powered ones are my favorites.<BR/><BR/>Lily H. - It really is nice here. <BR/><BR/>Louis - I agree! I'm glad you saw this too.<BR/><BR/>Hilda - These volunteers seem to be just that happy, and they work hard at it too.

I am happy to see it.<BR/><BR/>I used to live on Railroad Street and the train passed our house in the morning and in the evening and we got so used to it that sometimes we missed its passing. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the memories of school days. I think during the war that schools played a different role. I know we collected everything for the war effort from milk weed seed pods (spun into parachute cloth and life preservers) to paper and scrap metal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
