St. Louisans Ride Peace Train
Filed Friday, October 26, 2007 at 12:00 PM
This morning, nearly 200 people from St. Louis and surrounding areas will ride out of town on the 6:00 am Amtrak train to Chicago, or as they call it, the Peace Train.
The passengers are going to the Windy City to take part in the Mobilization to End the War, a demonstration against the war in Iraq. Chicago is one of eleven cities taking part in the Mobilization, and it will serve as the Midwestern hub for those taking part in the protest.
170 Peace Train tickets were available, and all were sold by Friday afternoon.
