We encourage individu- als, families and groups to sign up for a shift.

And without his previous net- work of volunteers, Lynch said he fears reaching that goal this year might be difficult. “This year I need more people to reach out to me due to the fact that I’ve lost all my contacts,” he said. “All gifts made in our community stay in our community.” This year, Salvation Army vol- unteers will ring bells at County Mart, 2138 S. Princeton Circle Drive, and Walmart Supercenter, 2101 S. Princeton St., Lynch said. The funds collected during the Ot- tawa campaign will directly sup- port Salvation Army programs in Ottawa, as well as the community’s needy, Lynch added.

Eventually, the Aurora, Colo., native places his arms at his side and smiles, signal- ing the halfway mark of his business’ venture to transport eight cars south for the new Kansas Belle Dinner Train. The train, which is co-owned by Schreiber and four others, has slowly been making its way from Fremont, Neb., where it chugged along as the Fremont Dinner Train for nearly 24 years. While there have been a few logistical hiccups, Bruce Eveland, man- ager and co-owner of the Kansas Belle, said, the transition has pro- gressed nicely. Four of six passenger cars are now at Midland Railway, 1515 High St., Baldwin City, he said. The com- pany still is awaiting a boxcar and a caboose. After the remaining cars’ arrival, Eveland said, he hopes to offer passengers a smooth, 22-mile ride through Douglas and Franklin counties by as early as mid-December. The dinner train is intended to bring pas- sengers back to the hey- day of rail travel in the 1940s, featuring music from the era and also theatrics reminiscent of the period. In addition to fine dining, Eveland said, he plans to feature a theater series — includ- ing murder mysteries, melodramas and perhaps train robberies — for passengers’ enjoyment. “I think that added entertainment cer- tainly [will meet] a lot of people’s expecta- tions of what they want when they go out for an evening,” Eveland said, adding that dinner train rides will cost about $60. In addition to some early funding gaps, a former Kansas law also inhibited the train company’s plans. The law outlawed the serv- ing of alcohol on railway cars, which would have affected the company’s dinner options, Eveland said. Thanks to a local legislator’s work, how- ever, the train company can offer wine, beer and other alcoholic drinks with passengers’ meals. In March, state Rep. TerriLois Gregory, R- Baldwin City, presented the Dinner Railcar Li- quor License bill, which allows train companies to serve alcohol to their passengers in Kansas. “Midland Rail contact- ed me to help last Feb- ruary with the anomaly in Kansas liquor laws,” Gregory said.

OutgoingstateRep.TerriLoisGregory,R-BaldwinCity,andBruceEveland,co-owneroftheKansasBelleDinnertrain,talkFridayaboutthefutureofadinnertrainventure,whilewaitingforoneofthetraincarstoarriveattheMidlandDepot,1515HighSt.,BaldwinCity.

“I vigorously lobbied the assistance of other leg-islators to support my bill. ... I am thrilled with what my legislative work has helped create,” Gregory said. Without the new legis-lation, Eveland said, the company likely would have sought other business op-portunities. “It was a necessary factor,” Eveland said of Gregory’s bill. “It’s with her help that we got the legislation through.” The train, Eveland said, also should help boost the local economy, as the

company plans to add two full-time and up to 15 part-time positions to serve the train. To incentivize the train company’s move, several public organizations have offered funds to aid in the transition, including a $5,000 Baldwin City Eco-nomic Development grant, a $54,000 heritage grant from Douglas County and a $25,000 Entrepreneurship Communities loan. “I hope that we certain-ly meet the expectations of what these public entities are expecting,” Eveland said. “The name of the game obviously is to try to create a lot of visits to

the area. Businesses need people coming, staying the night to spend money on

other things and to try to create a destination both locally and regionally.”
