Night Trains

On Saturday night we took a family trip to the Twin City Model Railroad Museum for the annual Night Trains display. The museum has an impressive model train display on a daily basis but during the holidays they have a special evening event where they turn down the lights and deck the town and trains with snow and festive decor. We took Noah two years ago so it was fun to be back again. The event has grown a lot in two years.


The boys also got a chance to be engineers. Micah drove Thomas and Noah had Diesel.
Of course, there are train tables to play at as well.
The train displays are truly amazing.

Ringing the bell.

  4. So much fun! We have a big re-hauled old train station in the city and they have something similar year round but a night time one would be so spectacular!
    Best,
