The Iowa Northern was a great host to the C&NW Historical Society when it met in Cedar Falls in 2013.  In addition to a ride from Waterloo to Vinton (where lucky members had cab rides) and complete access to Bryant Yard, Dan Sabin was our speaker at the banquet.

Very nicely done by someone(s) who actually know what they are doing with video, sound and story.

Good catch, Jeff.
