Marietta, Whitlock Ave at the RR Tracks, 2012

When I see these tracks at this spot I am reminded of a  late friend Larry carrying his sister and her friend to a football game at Northcutt Stadium one Friday night in the 1950s and had to wait on a train that was stopped.  The car that was stopped in line with the street was the dining car.  People were dining.  Larry's sister and her friend decided to give the diners a show.  The "dropped their pants and bent over the seat and gave them "Red-eyes".
