Train tracks

Day #79
 
There is something to be said about trains. From movies, books, and stories from our ancestors traveling across Canada by rail. Riding a train is a romantic notion. Last year I have ridden on a train from Vancouver to Seattle, Munich to Paris, Paris to London, and  the Polar Express train in Mossleigh AB. 
Train Tracks
The train tracks run around Lheili T'enneh Memorial Park, and the Little Prince has delighted children and others for many years. The Prince is a 24"gauge  wood fired steam engine that was built in 1912. The Prince was one of the work horses that helped build The Grand Trunk Pacific railway. The Little Prince is a national treasure right in my own home town. And yes, my children and I have gone around the park on The Little Prince.
