Evening departure for the Kiddieland Limited. Kiddieland Amusement Park. Melrose Park Illinois USA. June 2007.

I took this photo one evening in June of 2007. The local public schools had just closed for summer vacation approximately one week earlier, and now the Kiddieland Amusement Park in northwest suburban Melrose Park Illinois was begining their summer weeknight season. The miniature 14 inch guage Kiddieland Limited, was preparing to leave the Miniature Railroad station for another lap around the property at sunset.

I remember Kiddie Land! Do you remember Hawthorn Melody Farms?? I have a photo of a small steam engine from that amusement park in 1965 as well as some other pics of vintage transportation on my blog
