Come hear the clickety-clack of the track and enjoy a ride through history ...
If you enjoy train rides though the country and small towns, then you should check out the Moraine Train, run by the York-Durham Heritage Railway. It is a 20 km (12 mile) ride between Stouffville and Uxbridge (Stouffville is 40 minutes north of Toronto), winding through the Oak Ridges Moraine. It takes an hour each way, with a short stop in Uxbridge.
Gord and I did this with Single Horizons this afternoon. There were about 30 of us in our group (though both train cars were full).

Teena this looks like a fantastic day. Train trips are such fun. Hope it wasn't too cold of a day to enjoy it. :-)
This looks like a wonderful thing to experience...I haven't been on a rain for about 4 years...and then it was just to go down to San Diego to see a play, and then back here to L.A. that night,
But this is really a great idea to have an outing and get a delicious train ride and see the coubtryside. Fabulous! Loved the pictures!
Wow great photos! I love the train. Great blog Teena.
Looks like you had a fantastic trip! Love the pictures!
Awesome...it is things like this that I miss about living in Toronto! There were so many cool things to do that were just a short car ride away. *sigh* However, I do not miss the 401 one, single bit!
I think it was your GREAT pictures that inspired my November Resolution.
