I can hear the rail yard down the street. They seem particularly loud this morning as they are pushing cars around with those big engines. My eldest son loves those engines and he got really upset when he read that they were going to be getting replaced with more modern ones. The engines are a bit over 60 years old and getting worn out. But just about the whole town is up in arms over this and the company is receiving a lot of angry mail. I'm hoping that they can donate one of the engines to the transportation museum up by the city and keep one for the annual leaf peeper train.
The last leaf peeper train was in autumn of 2019 and it was a big hit. We're hoping that they'll resume running it this year. The kids had an awesome time riding the train. I watched them board with their father and uncle. There wasn't room for me and my social phobia was already making me feel claustrophobic just standing with the people taking pictures.
