Great shot Ken. My father played that course a few times and I remember him telling how he had to wait for the local to clear the fairway. My father worked for the B&M in the 50’s and early 60’s and got a big kick out of see this as much as I a kick out of hearing about it.

If only the doors were open on one of the box cars! Are there stories to be told of golfers insisting on playing a shot from the lie of the RoW as the local approached? Great photo!
