Christmas Trains for Weeds, 2017

We went to the Phipps Conservatory holiday show, and they have a model train room!  So:  Christmas (model) Trains for Weeds!  Sound is not necessary to enjoy these, and in fact is just the slightly-overwhelming noise of SEVENTEEN MILLION PEOPLE all looking at the trains at the same time.  Part of your Christmas present is getting to enjoy the trains without having to hate all seventeen million of the people, you’re welcome. 😉

they had a pirate theme this year, for some reason.

I hope you enjoyed these Christmas Trains!  Happy new year 😀

Christmas trains for Weeds, because hush it’s still Christmas until Epiphany.  These are toy trains which I saw with the Kid at Pittsburgh’s Children’s Museum.  Supposedly they show the train system from the height of Pittsburgh’s steel industry, about 120 years ago.

Morning trains for Weeds. 🙂 (not super exciting shots, but still trains. XD) The Kid’s day care is right next to a freight track, so I see this train most mornings, and now that I have the Pocket Brain, I can take pictures of it! It also had coal cars, cars that I think are for kerosene or something like that, and weird yellow frame things that I have no idea of the use of. Maybe next time I’ll get pictures of them.

i never feel closer to nature than when i’m waiting in a subway station with no electric signs telling you when the next train’s supposed to come and i feel a gentle breeze stir up. that breeze is made by an approaching train further along in the tunnel. it’s like sensing rain in your bones. i always want to turn to someone leaning out and staring into the darkness and go, “a great wind comes. the train is upon us.”
