I used to ride the Katy Flyer from New Franklin to St. Louis back in the early fifties. I even road in the caboose (on the Moberly Local) with my dad who was a conductor/brakeman on the Katy. Great times. I wish we had the old trains back. I sure miss 'em and all the wonderful people I met who were Katy employees.

Was your father stationed out of New Franklin? They have a Katy caboose sitting downtown if you ever go back there. My dad remembers working in the fields along the Katy as a kid during WWII and seeing transport trains of German POWs going by. The Germans were actually happy to be in the US, out of the war.
