I miss going on the ol' Am Trak. I used to go from Milw. to Chicago just to look around for the day and then ride back. I think it cost around $14!! You get a whole different perspective from the train. Hope you had a good time.

Bright and sunny here in St.Louis this morning.
Heading to the Bears game at noon today.
Even when I'm away from home I still feel the need to check in here on the forum.
My wife says I'm addicted but knows that it keeps me out of trouble.

Hey Doc,
Maybe I'll even see Franc .....

Nice photos Gary! The St. Louis Union Station is an architectural gem. Constructed in the 1890's, it cost $6.5 million!

When I was in St Louis in the late 90's on business, I went to the arch hoping to take the ride to the top. Unfortunately, the ride was closed for some reason. The night photos you posted really make me wish I could have gone up there.

Thanks for sharing.

Boy, the Rams are depressing to watch. I was hoping they would win more than two games this year!

Oh well.
