tWas 8 (and in 1965), and just about missed the era of old traditional train travel.  That was about the time most of that stopped.  And that was the reason for the trip to my grandparents, so I could witness and experience it. 

My folks were good about that.
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.
