Benjamin has become a train nut thanks in part to his best friend Steven. Together the two of them plan out and build all kinds of elaborate train layouts. So, while we were in Chattanooga, we took a ride on the Tennessee Valley Railroad so Ben could ride on a steam train, his favorite. Unfortunately, the steam train was under maintenance for a "boiler wash" but the whole family still had a blast riding on a vintage diesel locomotive. The trip goes through a pre-civil war tunnel, which only had six inches of clearance on either side. A working turntable, the boys loved that. And a tour of the maintenance barn where they restore the trains. It was a really neat trip, we hope to return someday and take one of the longer excursions.
