Terror on the Railroad Last Day is October 31, 2007

The last day to enjoy Terror on the Railroad at the Illinois Railway Museum in 2007 is Wednesday, October 31, 2007. This event is not recommended for children under the age of 13 years but it depends on the child. Some teenagers have been too scared to go through the railcars parked near the steam barn known as the Train of Chills or ride the museum mainline on the Screamliner. It's fun to be scared sometimes as long as we know we are safe so maybe a reminder that this is all in fun and the actors are not going to hurt anyone will be reassuring for those who are really afraid.

Below is a short clip I put together to give you a taste of what the event was like for me when I was there on October 20th.



Take someone warm to cling to and have a fun and safe time!

Hi Pauline!
I really enjoyed the Throttle Time at the Monticello Illinois Railroad Museum.
I have never been to this museum, and it was nice just to see those wonderfull cars and locomotives on display.
I especially enjoyed seeing the Wabash cabooses and that old Wig Wag signal.
I could remember back in the 1970's and early 80's watching the Illinois Central GP 10's in Orange and White colors with Illinois Central Gulf markings. Happy times!

You have a wondefull blog site!
Please keep up the good work.

Thank You.
