Heck Yes... I've posted this before, but it seems appropriate to share again. Just listen to my sons voice. He was 10 at the time. It just made my day.

Just an update on another activity we like... When possible, we always like to drive a route where we can drive next to or over tracks in the hopes of seeing a train.
Last Sunday we rode the Strasburg (My wife's idea of the best Mother's Day ever) and we decided to head back home on any road other than an interstate or main highway.
My GPS shows railroad tracks, so I love to call out to my son and daughter, "Tracks on the right... track on the left... crossing!"
As we were driving through Colebrook, PA (Never been there before) I hollered out track on the right, parallel to the road. My son said he did not see anything. It was a very wooded area on a road that was narrow and curvy so I could not take time to look. I said WE ARE RIGHT ON TOP OF THEM... to the right, you have to see them. I can't look too closely since I was driving. He said, I don't see any tracks, just a Bicycle trail.
Ding! Ok... There use to be tracks, it's now a rail trail.
