In between guests at the house this weekend, we had a chance to go visit the Illinois Railway Museum. A dream come true for Erik (and me I suppose too ;) ). Too bad we didn’t get to spend more time there, as we only saw a small portion. Man those steamers are HUGE! We had enough time for a ride on the Nebraska Zephyr and then wandered into the Steam engine barn. Pretty neat to see the real thing. Next time we’ll visit a bit longer and hopefully get to see some Steam engines puffing along, I’m sure Erik will get a kick out of that.Check out these photos.
