Show us your Lincoln collectables!

Thanks, Rick. Good morning, Bill. I believe Buffalo also had a mock funeral; actually Buffalo had two funerals. Buffalo staged a mock funeral for the slain president on April 19 (the same date as the state funeral in Washington). Then, when the funeral train came through Buffalo on April 27th, the folks there staged a replay of what they had already done on April 19. The same catafalque and hearse were again used in the procession.

I have posted links to the 2015 Lincoln Funeral Train website in other threads, and the folks keep adding to their website. There is now a short video about the 2015 train here.
