Science Abuse Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 Look who's crossing the Mississippi fo the first time in a long time: http://trainfestival2009.com/ http://trainfestival2009.com/images/event-4449.jpg I'll be there.

TTQ B4U Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 Look who's crossing the Mississippi fo the first time in a long time: http://trainfestival2009.com/ http://trainfestival2009.com/images/event-4449.jpg I'll be there. I'd be taking the boy on the Chigago-Owosso leg, if the logistics of getting a ride to/from home weren't such a pain in the ass. That looks like some cool stuff. We took our kids on a nice steam locomotive tour when in Michigan last year. They loved it! I may have to look into this too. Let me know if you decide to put together a trip. I'm game to get the families together. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
