Folkstone, Georgia


We were told that many, many trains passed the small town of Folkstone, Georgia. We dropped in for a day, but sadly only saw a few trains, and were only able to photograph one freight. There are other train-spotting locations in this area of the country, and we may try again in the future.

Spent a day here. This is a wonderful air museum. They have an additional hangar with planes being restored, as well as engine displays.

Very appropriate for September 11th.

We made a quick visit to the bear factory in Chelsea, Michigan. They have this nice flag made up entirely of teddy bears. The display of historical bears is interesting, but we did not manage to have a tour of the factory.

Taken at the New York Central museum in Elkhart, Indiana. It is an excellent museum, and along with this EMD E8 loco, there is a wonderful steamer and a GG1 electric.

The displays inside the museum are excellent.

Had the hot dogs at Dickie Dees in Newark, New Jersey. Quite an experience.

They loaded the top of the "sandwich" with twice-fried potatoes. Wonderful. Also, not on the diet.

We had lunch, of course, at Cluck U. This one was located in Randolph, New Jersey.

Sandi had the hot, hot wings. I had the chicken sandwich. We split the onion rings.
