The Great Train Robbery Part 2

Let's make a run for the border!

 

If you looked at the previous photo you'll know that there was a train robbery on our way back to town. If you didn't know then you should read the description on the previous shot!

 

Once the train had been thoroughly robbed the "Bad Guys" jumped off and headed out, probably making a run for Mexico to hide out till things had cooled down for them. More likely, they went back to the saloon in town to spend their hard earned dollars on whiskey, women, and song!

 

If you've never been to the Grand Canyon the train trip is a great way to see the place. You've got a 2 1/2 hour trip each way on the train and about 3 1/2 hours for exploring at the Canyon, more than enough time to take in the sights. We took the advice of Jim Frazier and booked the Luxury Parlor car which offers plenty of luxurious seating and amenities (for Niccy) and an outside observation platform (for me). The folks working there put on a real nice show and tour that's a great showcase for the canyon.
