Steam!

October 14, 2024  •  Leave a Comment

I was born in a railroad town, Peru, Indiana. And when I was little, my mother would take me to the railroad crossing just half a block from her parents' home, and we would watch the steam locomotive pass. What a sight and sound! A fellow would come out of a small building with a stop sign to halt the traffic.

I cut out photos from newspapers and magazines and pasted them into a scrapbook. I wish I still had that scrapbook, but I have the memories. 

I still enjoy trains, and steam is best. This shot is from the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, Colorado.
