Shelby Railroad Reunion
KENTUCKY...
It’s the time of year again for the Shelby Railroad Homecoming Reunion, and participants are planning for a big kick-off for this year’s festivities. Scheduled for Saturday, June 26, at 11 a.m. at the Grace Baptist Church at Shelbiana, the reunion will only require members attending to reunion and visitors alike to bring a covered dish, lively conversation and a friendly smile. The public is invited, of course, and certainly those with family members with existing or past ties to the railroad and Shelby, said Pike County Judge-Executive Wayne T. Rutherford, President of the reunion. This will be the 14th annual homecoming for the Shelby Railroad Association, and it promises to offer much of the same from prior, successful reunions. Railroad Reunion historian Myra Adkins Coleman, who died less than a year ago, will be honored during the event.
