PAT excursion
Title:  PAT excursion
Description:  This is the Illini Railroad Club's flyer for the excursion from Chicago to Pittsburgh in 1966. I went on this trip, the weather was not too good, but I shot photos anyway. Since I was a lad of 18, I could only afford the coach fare, and that, coupled with a poorly heated coach, allowed for little sleep through the evening.
