Riding the Train

My favorite part of our trip to Branson was riding the Branson Scenic Railway. We boarded the train Saturday morning and ate breakfast on the train. The boys loved riding the train because we could go anywhere we wanted on the train and try out all the different vintage cars. We sat in the dome car for most of the ride.

This is the view coming out of the tunnel.

The train took us down into Arkansas and then back along the same route.

Alex and Daddy were pretending to be asleep in the "fancy" train car with reclining seats.

And I think this really was a real yawn from Nick.
Nick and Alex enjoyed their breakfasts of biscuits and gravy. The train conductors were really nice. They came around and punched everyone's ticket but for the boys, the conductor asked what their name was and punched an "N" on Nick's ticket and an "A" on Alex's ticket.
