Viewing Album:  A Ride on the Midland Railway-Baldwin City, Kansas
 
By:Matthew Zisi
Dates:9/8/2018 - 10/13/2018
Album Info:Baldwin City's a really small town, but they do have one thing most towns don't have--train service to Ottawa! Ottawa, Kansas, that is-and actually, the line by Ottawa is under repair, so right now they only get down to Norwood. Still, the people that work there are very nice and entertaining. Our conductor had a great sense of humor, and the engineer let me look around the cab of the locomotive! They'll run through October, then do the Polar Express train starting in mid-November, so hop aboard if you're ever in the area! UPDATE: Took a few more pictures a month later, when I went back for another ride. Enjoy!
