If there’s one thing I’ve learned by having a son, it’s that trains are the best thing ever. I can probably recite some of the Thomas movies by heart, and we’ve spent plenty of time at train museums, and driven two hours to participate in the Day Out with Thomas event, that was joy for him, and the worst day of my life. If you’ve got a kid (or a grown-up) that’s enamored with trains, get yourself to the North Atlanta Trade Center this weekend for the Atlanta model train show. More than 300 tables from all over the nation will have trains and railroads to check out (and stuff for sale, too!). You’ve got trains from the past and “future trains” as well. I’m not sure what a future train is, but if you go, send me a picture!
