Bill,I don't know whether I ever saw a woman on a fan trip in the late 1940's. Or maybe I was too young to notice! Mom certainly did not come with us. By 1962 or so, she and many other wives were on a fan trip from Chicago all the way to Silverton by rail. She and Dad make quite a few friends from the couples they met on a few longer fan trips in those years. Remember that the fan trip on the West Side Line was an electric railfan trip, not a long-distance excursion. It's good to see the young couples nowadays on nostalgia subway trains and such, partly because transit jobs are now open to women and it's not just male turf. Joe |
