[QUOTE="db-2, post: 317637, member: 4743"] Went to a four room school with 4 classes in three of the rooms. I think it might have been 1952 or maybe 53 but: (6 or 7 years of age but i was in school.) Loaded us kids in the grain box of a farm truck to go to larger neighbor town to see someone important speak from the rear car of the train. i was to stick with my older brother but he took off on me when we got to that town. A whole bunch of people and i got lost. I did look for him but never found. In the end i did find my way back to the truck but was the last one. (Was not a good experience) The above i remember well but who spoke? All these years i thought it was maybe Truman but maybe Eisenhower. Will never know and i did see him speaking but not what was said. Now age 74 need to find out. So do any of you remember if one of them made a trip on the Great Northern RR along side Hwy 2 at that time and did stop at various towns? db [/QUOTE]
