Robbed!

The train ride was SO much fun! Aside from Austin complaining the entire trip (typical Austin)...

I tried to take pics of things that caught my eye out of the windows, but I didn't get much that was usable. Those windows were FILTHY! The Wild West style train robbery was of course the highlight of the trip. Those guys were so neat.

Here they are coming up beside the train and surrounding us...

This guy even "shot" at us! (see the smoke?)

A member of the "gang" came aboard:

He took our money! (lol, all money goes to the fund to restore the old steam locomotives!) That's my sister and neice with my two boys.

He also took the strongbox with the "money" and "gold" the train was carrying...

The train let us all get off and talk to the actors and see the horses... Devin sat on one cowboy's horse and got "held up"!

I have more pics from my "drive by shootings", but I'll save those for tomorrow. I am definitely going to take the kids back to ride the train again in the spring (this was the last "robbery" of the season...:c)
