Description
When the last of the visitors has walked down the exit ramp and the historian "ghosts" are left alone again with their great writings, the Freedom Train assumes a restful attitude at night. But its gleaming white, and stripes of red and blue, blend well with "stars," provided by overhead electric lights. Rest it needs, indeed, for the morrow brings thousands more to listen to the story of America. Photo date: February 25, 1948.
