And Our Flag Was Still There
Memorial Day weekend in the US means lots of flag waving and celebrations to honor those that gave their lives for their country. And, it comes near the end of May. Canada Day is July 1st, so it's no wonder the Canadian crews onboard CPKC's Final Spike Tour were a little confused by all the memorials and flags they passed on their trip across Louisiana and Texas on this hot Saturday in May.
CP 2816 passes a display of American flags lining US 171 in Anacoco, LA as CPKC's Final Spike Tour rolls south towards its next stop of Kendleton, TX.
