Today, we enjoyed watching the countryside from the windows of a train car on the Strasburg Railroad. I highly recommend waiting until fall to take a train ride in Lancaster Co. The last time we rode on the train the corn was so tall that most of the ride that's all you saw. This time around we enjoyed the gorgeous fall weather to the max!
As a mother of two boys, I've had my share of trains (particularly Thomas), and with a recent trip to the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania we learned so much more about how trains work and a bit of history. The boys were so excited to watch the train use it's knuckle coupler to join up to the passenger cars - because it's much safer than the pin method. (Thanks Railroad Museum) :)
Even Laura shared in the excitement of the railroad, obviously her big brothers excitement rubbed off on her too!
and several cell phone snapshots out the train windows.
