A train ride, can be a great family experience.
It's a great way to see the mountains, without having to worry about who's going to drive.
The conductor even humored us, and let us get his picture.
Something about the motion, the chug-a-chug of the train, and the shrill whistle of the train revs up your emotions and puts you in the spirit for an adventure.
What a beautiful and glorious day it was.
So picturesque and sunny.
I got some beautiful shots of the mountains.
and of the train.

My favourite is the last one, of the train trailing along behind...
ReplyDeleteI was fortunate enough to take a ride on this train once. Loved it. Colorado has nothing but beauty.
ReplyDeleteKids and trains just go together!
ReplyDeleteWe rode on this train many years ago and it was such a great way to see the Hills. Thanks for the memory. xo
ReplyDeleteWow that's a lovely experience to ride again on this vintage transports. I love the shots of the snow capped mountain at the distance. I remember during my first visit to China, the train has still that "chug-chug" sound which i thought is just getting momentum. Later i realized it was actually the normal speed!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun trip! Love that you could do it as a family thing! Thanks for popping by my blog earlier too!
ReplyDeleteThose are lovely photos. Definitely a family-friendly trip!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun trip! Great photos. :-)
ReplyDeleteoh what a fun trip!
ReplyDeleteIf you're ever in Oregon you'll need to take a ride on the Mt. Hood Railway. It meanders through the fruit growing regions (pear, apple, cherry) and blossom season is fabulous.
