Trains and War

On Memorial Day 2007 we honor all those brave Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice to help preserve and protect the United States of America.  Throughout the history of 19th and 20th century warfare, when our troops went to war, trains played important roles in getting them and the supplies they required to the front lines. Trains were also just as important to our enemies.   Below you will find a number of links to stories and photos about trains at war.
