Thank you, we need all of the help we can get to overtake those Cards!

Regarding train-related attractions and considering your time constraints, as Jan pointed out above, close by is the Carnegie Science Center which has the huge 3-rail O Gauge layout which has been discussed often on this Forum. You and your grandson would certainly enjoy the layout and many of the other exhibits in the CSC. But they don’t open until 10 on Sunday morning and the Pirates game starts at 1:35 which wouldn’t give you enough time to completely tour the CSC. I would suggest going to the CSC on Saturday afternoon instead which would give you more time.

You could ride the incline on Sunday morning. Just take the T to Station Square and the lower incline station is nearby.

HTH, enjoy your trip and Beat-em-Bucs!
