Olaf's tales about his adventures chasing trains on the ng. got me to thinking about my early trips. I was no nowhere near as adventurous as Olaf, and a lot farther away. But it is fun to reminise and it brings back a lot of good memories. Here is a link to a story and the pictures from that first visit in January 1960. Nothing really new, not terribly exciting, but fun for me to put it togehter.
