it is June 22-23,2002. suppose to have the BN hustle muscle up here in NP paint as well as the Zephr. Events also include up here are flea markets and the Carl Sandburg College Train show. There are also Excursion rides through yard on a Metra Train. and other activies like a carnival and booths up at the Amtrak Depot. Just wondering who might be planning to make the trip here? Maybe we can have some what of a trainboard reunion up here?
We stayed in Galesburg overnight once. What an amazing place. The next morning the little museum was closed but a man working there let me in and gave me a private tour. I sure wish I could be there! Have a wonderful time!
Thanks Johnny, This place here is full of trains. Here in Galesburg we have huge terminal with Hump yard and classification yard. Hope some of you could make this year. Sounds like it going to good festival this year. [ 06 June 2002, 01:47: Message edited by: Jack Doran ]
But if you can't make it then is any time a good time to travel down to see trains? This is a bad (to busy) weekend for me. Mr Train along the BNSF in Chadwick, IL
