Mitch Marmel with Arkansas & Missouri Railroad welcomes passengers aboard a train Saturday during the Founder's Day celebration, honoring the 140th birthday of the city of Rogers. The city was founded along the Frisco Railroad line in 1881. Go to nwaonline.com/210606Daily/ to see more photos. (NWA Democrat-Gazette/Flip Putthoff)

All in all, a tiring but fun day! ;-D
