• All Aboard the Cousin Train

  While we were in Pennsylvania over the weekend, we had a fun little outing. As you can see, there is real reason to call it a little outing.

  

  Jeremy and Justin decided to try out the caboose.

  

  It really was designed for smaller people.

  

  This little train east of Chambersburg is nestled in a park and is run by volunteers.

  

  Large enough to hold adults, but small enough to for the children to feel like it belongs to them.

  

  The younger cousins all fit nicely in the cattle car and no one had to worry about them falling out.

  

  It chugged along at a slow rate and Jeremy was sure he could beat the train if he ran alongside.

  

  We did notice that he only went around once and sat and watched while the train made two more loops.

  

  After all the kids had taken four or five rides and the adults were cold, all the cousins lined up for a group picture.

  

  Justin found a train that was more to his size.

  

  And was joined by one of the younger cousins.

  

  I can't speak for all the children, but I enjoyed watching and riding the cousin train.
