If only there was one more day in the weekend. Someday, when schedules are a little more open, there's a little road trip north with our name on it: Trainfest! It's happening this weekend at the Wisconsin Exposition Center near Milwaukee on the Wisconsin State Fairgrounds in West Allis. It promises to be a huge event for railroad fans of every age and interest area, including numerous children's activities. If, like us, this isn't your year to make the trip, pull up the children's activities link to see some great video of model railroads and to print out a nice assortment of train coloring pages. The free Train Town coloring book offers enough detail in its railroad pictures to interest even bigger kids who claim to be too old for coloring books. This one will be a hit. Enjoy!
