Union Station
Nora and I took the kids to Union Station for a couple of hours. Union Station is a restored and functional train station that houses restaurants, a children's museum and a ton of train exhibits -obviously we went for the trains.
They had a train in from Louisiana with several cars displaying historic Mardi Gras items (it was actually pretty boring). They have a permanent display of a 1940s passenger train that Pierce and Anna love. Their favorite is the private passenger sleepers.
Union Station also has a large number of model train setups. Pierce would live in front of the these if he could. Nora and Anna tired of these well before the boy did. When we got home Pierce and I played with his model train set until dinner (Pierce was making up stories about traveling to Virginia by train). I think I'll jump on eBay and try and find some deals on some more engines and cars.
