Photos from today's Memorial Day Parade in Belleville, Illinois. The WF&P was featured as the 7th float with 171. Photos include Foster's truck, the 171, Greathouse & Geders handing out brochures to the crowd.

Thanks to Joe Geders, Jim Greathouse, Wayne Mosbacher & Jim Foster for getting all the details together to make this possible. Joe did a great job cleaning & painting 171 for display. Wayne provided the trailer and Foster did the hauling.

Today's crew was Jim Greathouse, Joe Geders, Kary Eckrich, Dennis Smith, Jim Foster & myself. The parade was a lot of fun & the kids along the route enjoyed seeing the 171.

We've purchased a small trailer that 171 can be mounted & stored on, this will allow for more parade & show opportunities.
