Remarks & Notes 
Angered that no one in Washington seemed to "give a dam" for Williamson and environs following the devastating flood a year earlier, the Tug Valley Chamber of Commerce chartered a special train to take disgruntled citizens to the nation's capital to press their case for flood protection for the Tug River Valley. Here the train sits behind the station awaiting the call to duty.

Powerful members of Congress once helped this scenic state get levels of service not seen elsewhere. Now the Capitol Limited and Cardinal are all that remain.
