Knott's Berry Farm

Our family recently ventured down to southern California for an end of summer vacation. We visited Knott's Berry Farm, which happens to have a nice collection of ex-Rio Grande equipment. I received a "behinds the scenes" tour and a cab ride from a fellow Narrow Gauge Railroad Discussion Forum member. A big thanks to Jeff T. for letting me tag along and making it possible.

Cab Ride!
