Thomas!

The front of the Thomas train we rode on.
Sir Topham Hatt
(interestingly, in the original stories he's called
"The Fat Conductor." I guess when he was introduced in
the U.S. he wanted to change his image).
The Illinois Railway Museum is FULL of neat old trains.
We really enjoyed the large steam engines.

Hurry up and take the shot before they break anything! Riding an old El from Chicago circa 1950s.

Yea! It looks as though the train trip was a success. Sam appears to have bridged the gap from toy replicas to the real thing.

Very cool - my kids would love that!
That is so neat! Wes-man would love that! ^_^ I never realized how big those old trains were, until you see someone standing next to them!
