Dawson's Heaven

Today while driving home from Columbus we happened upon Dawson's heaven.  It's called the Buckeye Diner Express, and basically it's a restaurant inside an old train.
 
 
 
 
 
Guys, we are in a train.  I have a picture of a steam locomotive.  Mommy and Daddy have diesels.  Where are the couplers?  Why isn't it connected to the coal tender.  How do you fix it?  Can I fix it?
 
After a quick lunch of hot dogs and fries, the lunch of champions, we ventured outside.  Although Dawson's lunch was delivered and he looked at it and said "I'm done!"  I think he was just so excited to go outside, he couldn't even think about eating!

 
 
There was a bell for the kids to ring

 
 
And..... at this point it is about 20 degrees outside and we've just spent the last 45 minutes in a drafty cold freight car, so Mommy is checking out the interior of the car.
 
 
Dawson was obsessed.  He was a non-stop chatterbox all the way home.  He had to talk about the train.  It amazes me how much this little kid is obsessed with trains!
