Locomotive: Visitors will tour A&M campus
Continued from Page 1
Vandiver to host the event in College Station
because he has been a member of the society’s
Gulf Coast Chapter for 25 years.
Members of the Corps of Cadets, Alpha Phi
Omega service fraternity and MSC Hospitali
ty will greet the train at the corner of Joe
Routt Boulevard and Wellborn Road at 11:45
a.m. Saturday and escort the passengers
around campus.
“They are going to get 700 people off the
train in 15 minutes,” Knight said. “A city law
says that you can’t block an intersection for
more than 15 minutes.”
Knight said the train enthusiasts will eat
lunch in the MSC, tour the Sam Houston
Sanders Corps Center and J. Wayne Stark
University Center Galleries, watch the film
“Inspiration to Greatness” in the Les Appelt
Aggieland Visitors Center and shop in the
MSC bookstore.
“This is a good opportunity to showcase the
University and our students,” Knight said.
Lt. Col. Donald Henderson, chief of special
activities and Corps Center operations, said
tours of the campus, particularly of the Corps
Center, help visitors understand Texas A&M.
“Many people don’t know about A&M tradi
tions,” Henderson said. “We want to make
people more aware of opportunities in the
Corps of Cadets.”
David See, vice president of the National
Railway Historical Society Gulf Coast
Chapter, said Vandiver and Steve Lee, pri
mary engineer of the Gulf Coast Eagle for
[
the College Station trip, will addressfc
visitors during lunch.
About 20 local residents, including mei—El
representatives and Vandiver’s personsi* 9 *
guests, will board the Gulf Coast Eagle at E
p.m. for a ride to Valley Junction in Hear-,

Knight said the passengers might be al
lowed to get off the train for a pho:l
opportunity.
“The engineers will go up a ways and t® - .
around, build up steam and zoompas'.l^ 1 -
Knight said. “They will do it if they havi_
enough oil and steam.” ; :Jil Blf
