National Train Day is on May 10th Get your Choo Choo on
National Train day is this coming Saturday May 10th ok railfans do we know why? No Google cheats either, On May 10, 1869, in Promontory Summit, Utah, the “golden spike” was driven into the final tie that joined 1,776 miles of the Central Pacific and Union Pacific railways, ceremonially creating the nation’s first transcontinental railroad. And America was transformed. Bu then we all knew that didn't we.........lol Well it seems interesting and railoraidng weather it be big or small never really gets any press these days.
Clcik on the for kids section,"If your youngster lights up at the sound of a train, eyes gleaming with fascination at its power and speed, then you’ve learned a virtually universal truth. Kids love trains. They love to build model trains, watch videos of trains, learn about trains in museums and, of course, ride trains.
Sound like anyone we know?
