Chug-a, chug-a
Our commuter rail service has been on a hiring frenzy lately--check out their two newest engineers! Chug-a, chug-a, toot, toot! No, really--it was a Metra visit day. We had an excellent time exploring the inside of a locomotive and a passenger car (well, we'd explored those before, but we were never allowed to run around and climb the stairs so much before!), we visited the shops and saw how they fix sick trains, and we met some very cool workers who keep our trains running. And we learned that, to make the train bell ding repeatedly, the engineer only has to press the button once! There's another button to make it stop. Rachel and Nathan put both buttons--and our eardrums--to work. Thanks, Metra!
