Requesting family photos at the zoo train
I have this theory that many of us who grew up in and around Milwaukee have a photo somewhere in the family album of ourselves in a carriage of the Milwaukee County Zoo train.
I’m working on a video essay for Milwaukee PBS about why I love the zoo train and how I think it provides a separate kind of magic for kids than it does for adults. More on that later.
For now, I could use your help. Depending on how this crowdsourcing goes, I’m thinking about featuring YOUR photos from the zoo train.
I’ll take any and all photos. Ideally they’re horizontal scanned images. Let’s try to avoid a cell phone photo of a photo. But we do the best we can.
Help prove my theory right and submit your photos in the comments of this post. Or if you prefer, you can email them to me at meyerss2@matc.edu. And know that this will be a publicly shared story that will live online and possibly broadcast TV.
All aboard and keep on truckin’, friends.
