Album Info:About an hour and a half south east of Chicago sits the tiny town of North Judson, Indiana. Once a crossroads of several major railroads, it no longer sees any freight traffic - but there's still a wonderful railroad museum there! Steam engines, diesels, and cabooses are on display, and you can even take a ride for a mere $14! Wonderful place to spend a weekend. Enjoy!
