On November 1st, 1997, Anita and I took a trip with Joe and Shirley Dougherty,
on "My Old Kentucky Dinner Train" which runs out of Bardstown, Kentucky. Bardstown is known
world-wide for the many distillers of Fine Kentucky Bourbons which are located in and near
this historic city. It was a rainy day, but we had a wonderful time.
This ex-Louisville and Nashville caboose stands near the old
L&N station (of civil war vintage) in Bardstown which is the terminus of the Dinner Train.
This pair of EMD FP-7A diesel locomotives power the dinner train on it's
journey through the Kentucky farmland.
