The Kansas City Southern Railroad's Holiday Express made a stop here in Sulphur Springs...around 3,200 people weathered the cold weather to sneak a peak at the train. Joshua and I went in short sleeves, shorts and flip flops. It had been warm during the day. The weather quickly changed when we arrived. We stood in line for about an hour and 15 minutes...I was freezing!!!
