What a way to End the year of 2006. We had some serious Catching up to do with this train. We tried WR tower, but as we turned onto that road leading to WR, the poewr crossed the road, so we raced to Venice to catch it. A Nice representation of 3 Countries. FXE (Mexico), UP (USA), CP (Canada). This was the VERY last train I saw in 2006, and what a way to end the year! |
