点评:We joined the train in Willits for the trip to the Pumpkin Patch riding in the Noyo Presidential car. We were the only couple in the particular car for this trip so it was quite special indeed. Staff were super friendly and welcoming and wonderful sharing their experience and knowledge of the train and local area.
The train route goes to Crowley where the team had a pumpkin patch set up to celebrate upcoming Halloween. All the passengers were invited to pick a pumpkin to take back home while the conductor played the flute and I think pan pipes to entertain everyone. There was time for a walkabout into the back forest where there was one of the crumbling cabins as well as Crowley's tennis court (a sign for such was there but we weren't able to actually locate it!).
This was a good way to spend some time in the area and do something different. And from the sound of the kids on the train, it was a fun time for families as well.
翻译:我们在威利茨登上列车,乘坐Noyo总统车厢前往南瓜地。此次行程中,我们是那节车厢里唯一的一对情侣,因此这段经历实在十分特别。工作人员极其友善热情,还热情地与我们分享有关列车及当地地区的种种经历与知识。列车的路线最终抵达克劳利,在那里团队特意布置了一个南瓜地来庆祝即将到来的万圣节。所有的乘客都被邀请挑选一个南瓜带回家,与此同时列车员吹奏着长笛,我想还有排箫来为大家助兴。大家还有时间到后方的树林里散步,那里有一间破败不堪的小木屋,还有克劳利的网球场(确实有相关标识,但我们没能真的找到它!)。
这真是一种在该地区消磨时光、体验不同活动的好方式。从火车上孩子们的欢笑声来看……对各个家庭来说,那也是一段愉快的时光。
