The Georgetown Train

During my parent's visit, we decided it would be fun to hop on an old steam engine train for a ride and dinner. Mr X and I had purchased tickets several weeks in advance and we were keeping it as a surprise for my parents. It was all worth it to see the smiles on their face when we drove up to the train station.

This is the train:

We sat in one of the dining cars:



These are a few of the views that we saw from the train. They don't do it justice.








We passed by a lot of old mining sights/leftovers, see above.





See that trestle up there? That's where train stopped for us to have dinner. We just sat up there with great views while we ate steak and shrimp, while the sun sunk below the mountains. It was wonderful.
