Spooner Train Ride 2023

 https://spoonertrainride.com/

We had a lovely five course meal, a short ride across the Wisconsin country side, a bit of history lessons, and a bed & breakfast.  They also offer Santa Train, wine & cheese tastings, and a pizza train. They used to offer wedding services, private events.  There is also a caboose that can be rented out, ideally for a family.

Just some of the views, Namekagon River






Double decker car used for their wine & cheese tasting rides, these cars were in service along the Pacific coast, the upper level was only way to see the ocean.




Dessert

This guy has had it's 16 cylinder diesel de-turbo-ed as they were problematic, and isn't really needed with these light loads for these tourist trips.
