Sept 21

Sept 21 Our next stop is Shelby, Montana. We have had fun trying to find a postcard for Sharons granddaughter. We finally went to the train depot and found a picture of the depot with the name on the building. While looking around town we found a welcome to Shelby sign.(picture) Shelby is a small town and is known as the crossroads of the US. All trains going North, South, East, and West pass through the town. They had 6 tracks and 3 of them were full of trains that had over 120 cars. They say that 60 or 70 trains pass by Shelby every day. That explains why we went to the train depot for the postcard, it's the most active place in the town. Across the street from the depot was an Elks Lodge. We decided to ask them where there was a good place to eat. They recommended a Mexican restaurant down the street. The food was very poor I think we should have stuck with eating meat and potatoes in this part of the US.
