Come on down to Wellington, Ohio this Memorial Day Weekend and see the Leviathan and the Lincoln Funeral Car in action on the Lorain & West Virginia! We will be setting up an O-Gauge display inside of the station for the entire event. There will also be a Night Photo Shoot. Last year over 1900 people rode the train and this year is bound to be even better. A great event for all who like trains, the Civil War, and American history. Visit the Lake Shore Railway Association Website to find out more and purchase tickets ahead of time. http://lsra.org/

Looks like a great event! Maybe we can swing a trip out that way.

Thank you!

It was very fun last year and like I said it is sure to be even better this year!

Chicago PBS station WTTW reran their piece about Dave Kloke last night, plus a 2 minute view of replica Lincoln's funeral car.

The funeral car is the third video down. HERE
