    Wow, fully packed road show here. So much nice stuff to see and so many details known and told by our Guide, Carpetbagger. Absolutely one of the hights, for me, was that Missouri diesel freight train at around 27 minutes. Beautiful chord on that horn. Along with the rhythm of the wheels it made me think of Steve Reichs composition "Different trains" or maybe inspire to an entire new song. That is the sound of America.
    Hah! And then president Taft. He sure has the same belly as the Billiken, but i doubt he would let anyone rub it for luck ...
    My goodness, i have learned so much this episode. Appreciate it Jacob. You are one fabulous host!
