Hey, look! It’s me!

Posted on June 26, 2024 by W. Keith Brenton

On my visit Saturday, I noticed that the Baggage Room Gift Shop at the Eureka Springs & North Arkansas Railway is offering a new souvenir postcard — printed on both sides, since hardly anyone mails them these days.

And you’ll never guess which retired conductor is pictured on one side!

That’s right! Mark Mallet!

And also moi.
