Train spotting

I’m in Chicago the whole of this week and in true Charlton traditions I am attending a Rail Conference, which will include a visit to America’s largest inland intermodal in Joliet, south-west of the city. Oh, I see that you have logged off….

Anyways, I will also have the opportunity to catch up with some old friends and work colleagues, and plan to be as near as I can to updates as the Addicks attempt to redeem themselves at Derby on Tuesday night.

My original plans to fly via Miami were shelved as the connection was cancelled, so I found myself in JFK, and had to get the bus to La Guardia to pick up a flight to Chicago. Painful, but at least I got the chance to go on a bus in a week of trains. I am so Charlton!

Off in a minute to the Stout Barrel House & Gallery for a couple of sherberts. Wonder if I can get a bus there?
