Zoo Train




George and I drove up to Portland and spent the 4th at the Zoo. Neither of us had taken the train ride before so George got tickets for us and we gave it a try...It was fun!! I imagine it was like trains in the"olden" days you know...slow moving, and open windows (no glass, not just rolled down windows)....no train robbers though...probably a good thing!! LOL


This is the train we were on, stopped at the train station for the Japenese Gardens, we didn't go there this time but now that we know it makes that stop maybe next time.....our legs were pretty tuckered out by the time we were done with the zoo!







Here we are on the train... George... can't take him anywhere...lol... silly boy!!






These are some of the cool old trains that they had there...the one on top is still in service the little red one was in the back lot it looks like they use it for other purposes besides the train rides kinda looks like it has lumber loaded on it...they were doing some construction for new sites and improvements... but I thought it was a pretty cool little train..kinda the little engine that could..
