    The mrs and I took baby piney out to strasburg pa to ride the old steam engine. She seemed to love her first train ride and it was a beautiful day for it! Of course i had to get a pic of the log pile we stopped by. Baby piney even pointed at it witha smile when she saw it.

    Oh my, we did that back in the late 70's early 80's with our daughter. Not sure if she was impressed, but I sure was! Same accouterments, I notice! Do they still do the "ghost whistle?"

    Nice! She looks like she had a great time! And why not? No seat belts or car seats and hanging out the window!!

    The only time I've been on a train, I had to run alongside of it and grab a handle first!!
