Model train at the Casey Jones Home & Railroad Museum. I visited the museum today, nearly perfectly timed. Tomorrow is the 125th anniversary of Casey’s death. Seeing the sign for the museum on the drive east last week, went down a deep rabbit hole of Dumbo, Disney, and Casey Jones history. 🚂

@manton trouble ahead, trouble behind.

@MitchW @evan He was real! The Wikipedia page has a bunch of info on his death and some of the other songs and movies about him. Not all truthful, he sort of turned into a myth.

@manton There is also the Casey Jones Distillery in Hopkinsville, KY. Every time I drive by, I always start singing Casey Jones.

@groomsy That’s cool. Looks like an unrelated Casey Jones, maybe a distant cousin. 🙂
