This trip with my family of 6 was a waste of a day. The town felt like a gohst town although very pretty, it was 90 degrees so we purchased the open view glass tickets but the entire ride we didnt see any great views. The waterfall was lame and it was hot inside. Half the passengers were bored and slept. I recommend doing the rafting trip instead on a dam release, youll get much better views. If you want to doubke check my review go to google or yelp and check lowest score.

Thanks for the report Jamie! Right, "She'll be done when she's done." As the R&N's a working railroad I'd have to assume the 425's being rehabbed on a "time available" basis. She'll run again, she's too good to be left in a shed as a monument, her fans just have to be patient. You know, some might want 425 redone in a black paint job but personally I like the Blue Comet inspired paint scheme!
