I was born and raised in Saint Paul, Minnesota and for many years my grandfather, James R. Wilber was the president of the Saint Paul Union Depot, until he passed away in the mid 40's. As a three and four year old I spent many happy days with him there, and I was spoiled, he let me practically have the run of the station. That was many many years ago, I've lived in Florida most of my adult life (so far) so it was good to relive so many of those wonderful memories through your video, and it was excellent. Thank you.
This is so cool my Grandfather was the Conductor on the Empire Builder between Fargo, N.D. and Minot, N.D. for many years. I have been a fan of The Great Northern Railroad my whole life.
