Horseshoe Curve


We stopped at Horseshoe Curve (earlier Francisco had taken Chester to the Railroad museum and admission to the curve was included).


Basically, it's railroad tracks in horseshoe shape--a 220 degree curve.


We don't super highly recommend it--you can go to a little vista which isn't too special (according to Francisco--I did not pay to go). There's an itsy bitsy incline that you can ride.

BUT--a really, really long train came when we were there and it was pretty cool. From our position in the center of the curve at the bottom, we were totally surrounded by train.

Here are some pictures--not mine:


And from the air:


And I'm not sure if this video (of the train all around us) will work, but here it goes:
