Union Station

So, I haven;t ever spent much time in Ogden, but on our way to Bear Lake during Spring Break, we decide to check out a few sites we've heard about. We stated with the big Union Station where there is big display of retired train engines and cars.

This is a huge steam engine that ran mostly on water. The wheels were about 8 feet in diameter. Incredible!
It was awesome for our kids to see these huge trains up close and climb on them.

 And fun for my big Ryan kid, too.

 This is the train car that carried the Olympic Torch for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games.

If your kids are all into trains, I would highly recommend you stop by. After all, it is free to look.
