Such an attractive page in your sketchbook... lovely layout and paintings!
I like trains too. We vacationed in Utah a few years ago and rode the old train in Heber City (to Vivian Park). It was a three hour round trip and just delightful!
Oh Claire, how sweet. I love this page. My grandfather worked for the Santa Fe his whole working life. Love this.
Great page and some wonderful memories.

Thank you for your comments. I found out an interesting tidbit from my Mom tonight -- these dishes were a surprise gift to her from my Dad many years ago. He actually worked for the Santa Fe for a short period of time.
A delight, as always, Claire, to peek in your sketchbook (and a bit of your world)!!
My one and only experience with a train was one in Alaska! It was great fun and Chris and I have often talked of doing it again.
What a beautiful keepsake, Claire, both the dishes and your journal page of them. You always find a nice way to honor your parents.
As for trains, we have railroad tracks running through our backyard, so we see and hear trains every day. Our community is riddled with train tracks. It's a comforting sound to me, either to see/hear "our train", or hear the distant sounds of the other trains throughout the town.
