Train Ride.....

On one of the days we were there, we visited the Indiana Railway museum and got to ride a train! It was very cool and such a neat experience!
One of the trains!
One of the conductors actually came around and punched holes in our tickets! After getting our tickets punched, we were ready to go!
They even sold refreshments on this train! It was about a 2 hour ride and we went 10 miles out and then 10 miles back! We got to go through a tunnel on the way there and then on the way back! During that time, we were in complete darkness!

After we went 10 miles, we stopped at a general store and got some ice cream!!

Our family plus an extra! :)

Asher was pretty mesmerized by the whole thing!! If you look closely you can see his reflection in the window!
The whole experience was really neat!
My Dad's favorite part was taking some of kids through the different sections of the train while it was moving! He always likes adventures!!
All in all, it was a good trip! It was a little hot but very memorable!!
