Eastern Railroad Discussion > Go Indians - Chief Wahoo Rides the Rails

Congratulations to the Cleveland Indians winning game 1 of the World Series.

I lived in the Cleveland area (Shaker Heights) for 5 years in the 90's. 

I suffered through the loss of the 1997 World Series with the Indians losing a 1 run lead in the seventh game in the ninth inning thanks to Jose Mesa's(best closer in the AL that year)  inability to get the job done needing only 2 outs to win.

Any other year I would root for the Cubs, but I'm rooting for the Tribe.

I worked for the Cuyahoga Valley Railroad from 1994 - 1998.  The Chief Mechanical Officer and I decided Chief Wahoo should ride our RR during the World Series, and  he got a cabride for the length of the Series.

Nice picture and Go TRIBE

Outstanding!  I remember '95 and '97 all too well - really hoping for a better result this time around.

​Go Tribe!
