It Took Two Trains to Get Us Here

Niagara Falls from Prospect Park (linen)

Postmarked 31 May 1952
Niagara Falls, New York


Postcard Caption:
Niagara's water plunges 160 feet to the surface of the waters below, then travels beneath the surface for a distance of 1-1/4 miles and rises again to form the lower rapids.
Message:
Dearest Mom:/ Just remembering you from the Falls. It took two trains to get us here. Now back to Buffalo - the zoo and then Kenmore. Love, Clara
Hello, Grandma, It's beautiful here. Love from Freddie
Thank You dear Clara and Freddie dear, Mamy
You are welcome

Pictures at the top of waterfalls always give me the willys! I guess because of the power of the water and there's only one way to go. Can't believe the water travels over a mile in an undercurrent.
