The first scene on the Boston Common may have been a demonstration calling for the impeachment of Nixon that I remember (in, naturally, the only state to vote for McGovern, which proudly bumper-stickered its cars with "Don't blame me, I'm from Massachusetts" upon Nixon's resignation). How I miss that pre-cellphone, pre-COVID gathering and bunching of people! Thanks for posting!

The movie quality is so bad, I have to imagine what I am seeing. But I lived in La Crosse, so I have seen that river scenery there, and other places many times. Dells, Lake Pepin, etc. All familiar to me. So I can imagine it sort of :)

ah gone are the days when the railroads board members dictated the schedule. instead of saying "we can go from chicago to st Paul in 7hrs," it was more like "You are going to do it in 4 and go as fast as the train can go to stay on time. If you're late a minute, YOUR FIRED!"

My father was section foreman at Lombard during the 1950's and early 60's. I was never bored as a kid. I hiked and fished along 16 mile creek and the Missouri river. I walked through Eagle Nest tunnel. Horses would come into Lombard from the Swartz Ranch (Ranch Name?). My older sister and I would bridle them up and ride the ones that would let us. Lots of rattle snakes but we had a great little dog Cocker/Border Collie. The Milwaukee provided a school teacher for the two families there. There was six kids, My sister, me, and the four Berry kids. Nick Berry was my fathers first man. I am not Kaitlynn but her Grandad. I watched the last Hiawatha go through Lombard.

Don't know what the road's stance was, concerning passenger service just before Amtrak, but from what I've seen, the trains still looked clean and well-maintained. They fielded some striking passenger paint schemes. My favorite was the one shown here, before they took over Chicago and Northwestern's leg of the Union Pacific trains into Chicago, pre-1955.
