I went to the Amtrak station (Union Station) in Little Rock to meet a returning group of Rotary Club passengers who had been in Chicago in the wee hours of Friday, June 24, 2005. The train (Amtrak 21 Texas Eagle) was on time at 4:30 a.m. and the station was really busling with activity while the rest of the world slept.  I thought the night owl background was appropriate.

A little girl passenger had these horses lined up on one of the benches.
