Train Bound For Glory

Live Steam by Father Finelli Posted on August 26, 2007 by Fr. Jay FinelliAugust 26, 2007


I had some special friends visit last week and took them home for a good Italian dinner. Of course they wanted a ride on the railroad. Because of the time limit and I really did not want them to get covered with soot, I used the work diesel. My friends are the Capuchin Sisters of Nazareth. Three of them came up for the week and could not wait to get a ride on the train. I could not wait to get a picture. I dug up a few engineer hats for each of them to wear.
