Trip to Chicago: Day 5

Day 5: Union Railroad Museum
This cool railroad museum is only 15 minutes from my grandmother's house.
Even though it was stifling hot (and humid), we had fun riding on two different trains. At one point, our train (which was electric) had to stop because we lost about 400 volts on the line. This apparently happened because they were putting away some of the older trains. After a few minutes of waiting, we were able to start up again. Train travel must have require a measure of patience.
