Viewing Album:  Train Trip from Fredericksburg, VA, to Topeka, KS (2020)
 
By:Matthew Zisi
Dates:1/17/2020 - 1/18/2020
Album Info:Somehow never got around to posting these! I was very glad I took another long train trip in January 2020, especially considering the...ahem...fuss that would shortly transpire that year. But, back in January, the trains were running smoothly, the snow was falling, and everything was pleasant as I took the Northeast Regional, the Capitol Limited, and the Southwest Chief from Fredericksburg, VA, to Topeka, KS. Enjoy the best shots from the trip!
