Words by Khaetidawne and Brendan Quirk

This old passenger station with a freight yard behind -
Though people no longer travel on this railroad line.
Grain and freight keep the station and railroad alive
Like the “City of New Orleans” the trains here still thrive.
 
Does the "City Of New Orleans" travel through there? I once saw my brother and his wife off on that train at it's station in Cardondale, Illinois; cool train and song. It's a shame they don't still have passenger traffic in very much of the United States anymore. Although I did get to ride a passenger train from Philadelphia to New York City once.
