Illinois Railway Museum - Civil War Day 4The Illinois Railway Museum annually holds a "Civil War Day" where reenactors stage a battle on the museum grounds, making sure to involve trains in some way. Here, as the Confederate troop train departs the Electric Park battleground for a leisurely trip down IRM's main line, the Confederate reinforcements let loose a volley at their suddenly-outnumbered Union adversaries.
