The Polar Express: The Beauty of Steam Locomotives





While running Christmas errands a few days ago, I saw one of the local steam locomotives appear through the trees along the creek. Decorated with Christmas wreaths, garlands, and red bows on the front of the engine, it reminded me of the train in the Christmans story The Polar Express. The sight was so exciting that I raced ahead in my car so that I could pull off the road and snap these photos. I don't know what it is about these steam locomotives, but they certainly draw a lot of attention and encourage the imagination!
Merry Christmas Everyone!
