My Grandfather was a Conductor on the Spokane District. I knew that, but I randomly found out that he was one of the conductors on the record Silk train run from Seattle to St. Paul.
The Silk Train
I am currently developing site content based on the Great Northern Rail Road portion of a Silk Train record set from Yokohama to Jersey City, of August of 1924. I hope to highlight the workings of the Great Northern in the 20’s and discover more about my grandfather’s life.
