Exporail (June 2010)

This weekend we joined Melissa, with Maya & Gabriel, and Johanne, with Sofia, at a train museum. Melissa is a member and she got us free passes! Thank you, Meli!!!

I think everyone's favorite part was the miniature train ride. We actually went on it 3 times!

Unfortunately Gabriel was not allowed on the train, but he seemed content to crawl around.

The kids could climb around inside some of the trains.

I think I was most impressed by the sheer size of a snow-blower train that used to be used in the Rockies. IT IS HUGE! We also saw a video of it being used to clear the tracks in the mountains and there were places the snow was over the top of this enormous machine.
.

There was also a full-sized tram to move us around to different parts of the museum. We had our sandwichs outside while we waited for the train.

Here we are on the miniature train again!
