I FULLY support taking the train. A great adventure for scouts who probably
won't have the opportunity again.
In FEB, we have bought train tickets on a 2 for 1 special. OR it was buy one
ADULT ticket and get one youth (16 and under) for half price.
Contact me off list for more info and tips on taking the train.
Other suggestions already listed for extra fees are good.
