CHRISTMAS TRAIN ARRIVES!

The Chistmas season is underway in Hillsdale...

An eastbound Gateway Cherokee passes through, with both AP&W and KCS engines on the head end. Both are EMD SD70ACe's. While not the Christmas train, the loads of both green and red containers certainly give off the holiday spirit. More red and green HUB containers. The red containers are the old scheme, the green ones are the latest scheme. The Christmas Train arrives! Santa rides the front as it pulls into Hillsdale yard. The train will park on a siding by the yard office and hand out gifts to the children of the employees. Ms Martha and Tom chat as they wait for the Salvation Army soup kitchen to open up. Tom is a Vietnam vet who lost his leg to a land mine. During this holiday season, remember those who are less fortunate by giving to the Salvation Army and other charities that serve the needy.
