Love the train well maintained and the history of the railroad. Just 1 small complaint. I really liked the fact that the train allowed you to see the scenery from both sides of the train. We sat on the left side of the train on the way up to the summit and it was great with the commentary all along the way. Pretty nice also to stand outside your train car for taking pics. Windows can be opened on cars - we just didn't do that. The left side of the train on the way up is the best. However, the delays in getting started, then having to wait on a broken-down train on the tracks, dramatically cut into our time. We got our most scenic shots from this train ride. Really enjoyed oour trip. Very beautiful.
