How wonderful you had the newsclipping. It really made your LO extra special. I love that train paper and stamps. Thanks for the enabling...I got to order them. TFS the story!
My husbands grandfather left his family to join the railroad. They only heard from him once to say he arrived. No one knows what happened to him. I enjoy reading your family history!
Beautiful page like the colors and train embellishments you used. It a sad story my great-grandfather was conductor on the trains. My great-grandmother I bet worried about him a lot. Because like any job you never know what could happen.
Algie was a conductor on a L & N as was his father and three uncles. Algie was seriously injured March 2, 1947 when the caboose he was sitting in was splintered into millions of tiny pieces by a engine. He said that he saw it coming and realizing it was not going to stop, relaxed his body so he was not killed. The flagman standing next to him was killed. The trains were freight trains so the only injured were L & N employees.
