This vacation’s first day began reasonably with the family taking the Kentucky route from Owensboro to Louisville in order to visit cabooses. Not all are found in playgrounds. Many sit beside restored railroad depots like L&N 903146 in Irvington. We had actually stopped here on a previous drive, but it was raining and the boys were sleeping, so we didn’t count it then. The community of Vine Grove, KY was located about 20 miles away. We had no address for this one, so we stopped for gas and directions. The clerk steered us just a few blocks to where we found a weather-beaten red Illinois Central caboose sitting in a small clearing next to an active Paducah and Louisville (PAL) rail line.
