History According to Hediger: Following the Burlington Zephyrs
It’s fantastic to see the History According to Hediger series come back in MR
Video Plus. I could listen to Jim tell his history stories all day. What a great legacy to create on video!! THANKS.
Jim’s personal stories give us invaluable insights into railroads and railroad practices of the era. Thanks, Jim!
Fascinating stuff,Jim! Long may your memory hold!More please.
Jim, as they say; Thanks for the memories. Your mentioning your junior high days brought back my happy days back then, too. For me, it was a bigger worry getting to the station on my bike to see a certain train than it was to get my homework done! Things seemed so carefree back then.
Jim I grow up in La Grange and know what you are talking about. I wish they would have a article on the Stone Ave. station as these trains would pick up passengers their. The Burlington was a very busy railroad then. The only one busier was the Belt line. Thanks for the memories.
