Ridin' on the Choo Choo at Wyatt's Birthday Party

Comin' Round the Track

The Whole Gang on the Train

Why is a ride on an old steam train so exciting and so much fun? Well, I'm about to tell you, so here goes: 

We all piled into the steam train and waited for the old thing to take off down the track. The whistle would blow and huge puffs of steam would fill the air, and then slowly....slowly, the train started creeping, going "chuga chuga chuga, choo choo!" And then it went a bit faster and then a little faster still and then suddenly, that little train was throttling down the track, literally going full steam ahead. Wyatt, River and the whole gang watched the scenery fly by as the train winded along the narrow railway and through the Berkeley Hills.
