Label: Back in time
This week’s blog is about a little trip I took with a family member. We went to Chattanooga Tennessee. There we visited among other things, the Tennessee Valley Railway Museum. What a rush! We had a sunny but very cool day. The wind was from the north right out of the blizzard states, like Iowa. Some of the train passengers were from Ohio. They said they thought they would enjoy the warm Southern April weather. Such was not to be. Anyway, back to the excursion. It was great. Such history! From before the war for Southern Independence, “The Waw” (colloquial term), aka, the American Civil War to the changes brought about by the great Southern Railway, all could be seen on the property. Really!  The grounds were stuffed with classic and vintage rail equipment. All was inspiring to your blogger, omscaler. Who, it seems, needs a little inspiration now and again. Well, we got it. Now I am ready for a big push to get immediate goals accomplished. Until next time, all aboooard! omscaler
