The annual festival falls on a Saturday, running 8a-5p. This year it was extremely crowded with…read morevendors - if the advertising is accurate, we walked past 200+ booths. The total doesn't include the long standing antique and boutique stores on each side of the train tracks. Overall this is a craft festival - jewelry, repurposed wood and bourbon barrels, seasonal tees and sweatshirts, tumblers, 3D imprint items, crocheted toys and kitchen decor, and more. While I was excited about the number of vendors, shopping began to feel repetitive and lacked uniqueness. You will not go hungry here. In addition to food trucks, booths are offering a plethora of desserts, nuts, and other snacks. One could go broke and develop a huge belly ache! Parking is $10 and there's plenty of it. Easy in and out. Porter porters are scattered, but we found many without toilet paper at only midday. If you are shopping with kids, note that some paths are in dirt or grass, but no issue pushing a stroller by. Overall a good day ... we bought more junk food than crafts, but it was nice to visit Glendale and we're excited to come back without the traffic of the festival. It would be nice to shop their local stores and eat at the Whistle Stop.

So, just to be upfront with everyone... I am not a huge railroad buff. My dear friend loves the…read morerailroad, railroad history and just about anything with the word "train or railroad" in it. We travel a lot together and when we can visit a RR museum we do. What's in it for me? Fun, exploration and lots of photography. As a photographer I always use this opportunity to capture some some interesting photos. Whether a museum or just walking on the tracks trying to capture some fun angles, cool insides of the old trains and lots and lots of tracks. We came here from Louisville (about an hour drive) and just explored all we could get to visit. Many of the artifacts that you see here come from the old L&N line that made stops here. We did find it interesting that some old Long Island Railroad cars made it here. (We were visiting from Long Island, where we live.) Based on when you're here they offer train rides. We came on a very quiet day and were four of the six people here. The team here was wonderful both showing me around and answering lots of questions most train enthusiasts already know. I did post a few pictures from our visit. All in all, this was a fun place to spend some time and for me, have and interesting camera-train experience.

Located in New Haven, the old station houses both a gift shop and small museum. Many of the artifacts are from the old L&N line that made stops here. The museum also has a large model railroad but was slightly disappointed by the fact only one train was running in it. They also offer train rides, depending on the day and time of week. We were lucky enough that on this particular Tuesday they were operating. We took a hour long ride, heading south to Gethsemane and back again. The ride was smooth and cool but was generally very slow. We never felt the full power of the engine move us down to the track as we were hoping too. It's a nice ride but possibly not as exciting if you are a true train enthusiast.

Before modern plumbing, people used chamber pots. Federal commander Benjamin Butler was so hated…read morethat his face ended up at the bottom of one. In April 1862, New Orleans had fallen to Union forces. General Butler heard countless stories of his men being insulted by the New Orleans women. One example, Naval commander David G. Farragut had the contents of a chamber pot emptied on his head from a Confederate woman in an upstairs window as he walked down the street. In response, Butler issued General Orders Number 28 on May 15, 1862 to counter these disrespectful gestures. It stated, "As the Officers and Soldiers of the United States have been subject to repeated insults from the women calling themselves ladies of New Orleans, in return for the most scrupulous non-interference and courtesy on our part, it is ordered that hereafter when any Female shall, by word, gesture, or movement, insult or show contempt for any officer or soldier of the United States, she shall be regarded and held liable to be treated as a woman of the town plying her avocation." This implied the women of New Orleans would be treated as common prostitutes (allowing the men to grope or rape the women) if they made disrespectful comments or gestures toward Union soldiers. Butler earned the nickname, "Beast Butler," and achieved notoriety as a target at the bottom of a chamber pot.
