Letter: Did you know there are rails under Main Street?
Note: This letter is in response to the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce's program on the Dixie Highway Centennial on Friday, Jan. 9.
Icon viewers:
Did you know the rails ran right down the center on Main St? I grew on 668 S Main in the 1920s, Watching for the trains was a big excitement. Played 'hide and seek' running with the freight car across the street to a new destination.Watched for the group of new cars being driven from Detroit to unknown. What wonderful memories!
