    Very cool! It's a great spot with a lot more than I expected, like the boxcar and the replica caboose. The signage was also very well done.

    I wish it could too. There is a great book describing its restoration to operation and why it only ran for the 2006 season at the Georgetown Loop. It's called One Short Season by Jason Midyette. Great book.
