Being from coastal Massachusetts… love a ship, love a train. When this band formed, we took a ferry in order to rehearse. 15 years later, Sal made sure that we saw the SS United States (still holds the record for fastest transatlantic crossing) last time we played in Philadelphia. Growing up in a place without trains, the fascination has never ceased. We recently went to this model train expo at the Big E (eastern states exposition and fair grounds). At approximately 450,000 square feet, I hear it’s the largest in North America! Cooper got a conductor pin and Sal got an engineer pin.
