Orphan train reunion in Kansas highlights riders' memories

At the Kansas Orphan Train Reunion in Great Bend, 80 year old Anita Sprout and Teresa Jessie Martin, both former riders, join 14 descendants to reflect on the orphan trains era from 1854 to 1929. The event honors the Orphan Train Heritage Society of America and traces the history of Charles Brace's system. Sprout recalls losing memory of her birth family while Martin, born in 1906, describes the loneliness of school and adoption.
