I had great fun riding in the caboose on the train on Saturday. After it stopped, I was able to walk into another car. It brought back memories of my catching the Florida East Coast Railroad in West Palm Beach in the afternoon, and arriving in Atlanta where I was attending Emory University. I had an upper berth and it was great fun.

ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. here did you go on the train.
ReplyDeleteBoth photos are great, just like your text. Good memories mixed with present-day fun make for brand new good memories.
ReplyDeleteVery nice pictures, I like the old one most. It is always fun to see family pictures of long ago.
ReplyDeleteInteresting look-back and present! I fancy traveling on the Orient Express, and don't know if I will ever get the chance!
ReplyDeleteLovely memories. My one and only train ride was during my collegiate years from Texas to Minnesota for a convention.
ReplyDeleteFun memories. I would love to travel by train across Canada.
ReplyDeletei like both photos! hope you had a wonderful mother's day!!
ReplyDeleteI recall a sailor blouse from my childhood and remember how much I loved wearing it. Your sailor dress is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteAn elegant traveler then and now. I enjoy train travel a lot too, but haven't as much as I'd like. Like Margaret, I yearn to do the Orient Express.
