NWI-NRHS
| Program. | I thought I would expand the passenger train theme, moving away from Chicago. I will do Part 1 of "Passenger Trains of the Midwest", generally covering trains North and East of St. Louis. I say "generally" because photos of runs that overlap geographically are difficult to organize in any coherent way. That said, this will mostly be trains in Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota. |
