This past weekend was so much fun we had the nephews over for some train time. They played for hours with the electric trains but then said what about that one referring to the Live steam engine. It was hot and I was tired but we fired up ruby for a few runs. And the boys absolutely loved it ! Very interested in how it worked and ran. Hopefully by the next visit we will have expanded some track for even more fun !
