Chica turned 6 a few weeks ago, and as a special treat we whisked the family to Lancaster County (about 30 minutes away) for a fun ride on the Strasburg Railroad. We decided to go all out and enjoyed the dining car. For a glorious hour, we rode along the bucolic Lancaster countryside while noshing on tasty food.
Trains are truly a treat!
Kids, especially, find something truly magical about locomotives. And there are few things more exciting than meeting your favorite train in person! Several precious times a year, Strasburg invites Thomas the Tank Engine to visit. Day Out with Thomas is one of the most popular events of the year!
Until now.
This year, Thomas will be bringing a very special friend along! Percy will be chugging along with Thomas to the Strasburg Railroad this September. Little engineers and their families have the opportunity to take a ride with Thomas the Tank Engine AND Percy, stars of the popular Thomas & Friends® series.
