In the early 60’s we rode the zepher from Denver to Chicago. from there we made our way to alabama the Pheonix city area. any ideas what lines we rode?
From Chicago to Columbus, Ga., (across the Chattahoochee river from Phenix [the namers of the place apparently preferred their spelling of “Phoenix”] City, Ala., you probably rode over the IC and CG, on either the City of Miami or the Seminole. Do you remember a station transfer in Chicago (Union to Central) and if you rode only one train to reach Phenix City?

Thanks for the info Johnny. you are so right on the spelling my mom corrected me to. she was born and raised there. i know it was central we left out of from then on it was an adventure. i do remember in central station all the different colored locomotives pulled head in alot of e models, and me as a kid trying to climb on them my mom had a handfull.Thanks again.
