| Been there I've been on this train. It is (was) beautiful taking a trip through the hills in the Fall and taking in the wonderful colors.
The people who have road the train loved it. But not enough people did so there was not enough money to keep it going. What an experience people will miss.

| Re: Bummer A motel in PA is done all with cabooses. Even a Honeymoon caboose. Maybe the HC could be persuaded by telling 'em the cabooses are old.
