SO - - -our original rail trip was to be a total of 6440 miles.
However ...when we arrive in Chicago we will have ridden 9246 total miles.
This includes 2806 miles due to detours because of fires in the southwest and flooding in the Dakotas.
One and a half miles in reverse.
And 180 degree spin on a turntable.
The magnificent thing above all is that with this delay, no family arguments, lobster dances,fist fights, scream-fests, no one was thrown from the train nor put in "time out" ......This car is only 11' x 85' . We all get brownie points !!
Will post pictures later today !
The final survivors onboard are Mark, Karen Schmitt and Erika Schmitt.
