Thomas comes to life!


This week we visited a train museum in Warsaw. They had huge rooms full of model trains from all different eras. For the first ten minutes or so that we were there Arthur was in train overload! He just ran from train to train saying "choo choo, choo choo".


Arthur loved this blue train!


This working model train drove around and around on a windy track, I think Arthur could have stood there all day watching it!


Watching a movie about the history of trains in Polish- can you see how bored Arthur looks?


The museum is actually inside an old train station, so outside on the tracks they have dozens of old trains lined up.
Look at the size of those wheels!



A few of the train were open inside so that you could climb up into the 'engine' room.

Apparently there weren't any signs that said "Please don't climb on the trains", although I did point out to Chris that had there been a sign it would have been in Polish and we wouldn't have been able to read it anyway.


This little engine had lots of levers to pull for the budding train driver.
