Train-o-Rama

If you did not get to visit us yesterday, October 26, boy did you miss a show!



We had Thomas running on his own track along with locomotives with real sound and steam coming from them.


We also had our SPOOKY haunted house, along with flying witch, up and running. There are two buttons for one to push too! One makes the house howl and the other button makes a skeleton's hand come out from under the train. This is a true favorite for the kids.



You have one more chance, this year, to see us live. Here it is again...

C & G Newspaper


I came across this newspaper from Warren Michigan that let's you know of The Michigan Transit Museum fall color trains tours from Oct 13-14, 20-21 and 27-28. The train rides through Clinton Township and Harrison Township.

Thank you to Maria Allard, C & G Staff Writer, for the story and The Michigan Transit Museum, I think, for the photo.

Doris Day




Because of the Rita Hayworth picture added a few days ago, my father was in his glory. He had that glow in his eye but still said......."if you could find." So I tried and tried to find a picture of his girl and some kind of train. This is the best I could do. It was from the movie It Happened to Jane with Jack Lemmon. Here's a synopsis of the movie.....

I have also added a biography of Doris Day from Wikipedia in case your interested.

I did my best Dad!!!
