Sadly, as my youngest turns five next month, our family is reaching the end of an obsession with trains that lasted more than a decade.  However, a trip to Sonoma Train Town and a ride on the minature train there, showed me that even when kids “out grow” trains, there is something about a train ride that reawakens the kid in all of us.  One of the highlights of our visit was a stop at a kid sized town.  Here is some goofy moments from our layover.

    I use to tire of my son’s train obsession, but as it starts to go away, I’m missing it. I live so close, and have never been. Going to check it out.

    I always like exploring inside trains, ships, etc. Maybe I’m just a big kid at heart?

    You mention something so important, which is how quickly they grow. I also need to put this on my list. It could work quite well for our family…wine country one day…a few trains the next – everybody wins!

  7. This is a great place for kids of all ages. Has mellow stuff like merry-go-round and train ride for the smaller crowd.

    That looks like such a great place.
    I have to agree… although most of my kids have outgrown their love of trains as well, they all still get a huge kick out of riding the old steam trains :)
