FamilyFun: Wheel skills

90 year old Al Ireson of Lakewood remembers his childhood during his many visits to the Colorado Railroad Museum. His grandfather worked for the Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad. On Sundays they would take the train to Palmer Lake or Castle Rock for ice cream and then take the train back home for Sunday dinner. "Sunday's were the day's," he said. Joe Amon, The Denver Post
