Nostalgia & History > Katy in Temple TexasDate: 02/23/06 22:20 Katy in Temple Texas Author: xtra1188w Santa Fe is such a large presence in Temple, the Katy is often overlooked as also having a presence in Temple as well. Even though the names have changed and the colors are different, Temple still has TWO class 1's on their own trackage, just as it has been for well over a hundred years. (MKT/UP & GC&SF/AT&SF/BNSF)

Con  Date: 02/23/06 22:31 Re: Katy in La Grange Texas Author: xtra1188w I imagine that much relief has been had here in times past with the Sears & Roebuck catalogue and the spiders in attendance. Nothing but first class facilities for the Katy's patrons.

Will have to find some up here in Hoosier Land. Thanks for the show, Mr. Sweet. I read your stuff while my grand kids watch Sesame St. Mark Date: 02/24/06 09:53 Re: Katy in La Grange Texas Author: charlesn Thanks for the neat pictures.
(My mother-inlaw (Czech descent) makes the best Kolaches with apricot filling! One type is like a bread and the other type is a very flaky pastry dough shell.) Later, Charlesn Date: 02/24/06 18:07 Re: Katy in La Grange Texas Author: WrongWayMurphy Wow, Con, I have never seen that Palestine station before.
Thanks for sharing that one. As far as LaGrange goes, the etc. in your comment might mean a certain "Ranch" that once flourished just outside of town ??? Date: 02/24/06 22:31 Re: Katy in La Grange Texas Author: xtra1188w ArgyleEagle Wrote:
