Engineer's cap

[animator]

We visited the Southeastern Railway Museum near Atlanta this weekend and bought my son an appropriate hat while there.

Lots of old engines and train cars. If anyone is in the Atlanta area I would highly recommend it. The little guy even got to sound the train whistle!

Very cool! The cap descendant of the mechanic's cap of the 1800"s and similar to the WWII era military fatigue cap! Great look, too! Caps are tops! nice photo!

I had two or three of those myself when I was that age. And the coveralls to match! Great pic.

Great picture, you can tell who is having fun there!:eusa_clap

Di you ever wonder why it is that little boys just love trains, dinosaurs and construction equipment?


Makes me think of a friend back east said his little guy was about 5 years old and was running thru the house playing a fireman. As he ran down the hallway he shouted "Fireman, Fireman!" My friend said he wanted to give him some career advice and run behind him shouting, "Dentist, Dentist!"[huh]

When I was a mere tyke, my mom would take me to an outdoor train museum by the L.A. Zoo...Later on, I even saw a Columbo that had been filmed there...It was just a place that had a lot of old trains to climb on...but very cool as a kid!:eusa_clap
Animator...your son looks very happy (you look pretty happy yerself)...great hat!

Good Looking hat. My Dad was a RR Hoghead, and most of the guys in our area wore Kromer RR hats. Many wore black or the ones with the white spots on them, as well as the hickory stripe also.

Love RR stuff.

We've been on a number of trains since then. This day was so much fun.
