点评:My husband and I took our 5 yr old grandson on the Outlaws Train Robbery excursion. It was very well-organized from our ticket purchase, departure from Elgin, through the robbery and great lunch, to the return back to the station.
The host volunteers on board were friendly and the “outlaws” were authentic in dress and actions. We had coached our grandson that this would be “pretend” but he still was wide-eyed awestruck when the “bad guys” boarded the train.
He was enthused for the whole 4 hours, much of the time we spent in the open-air baggage car where he could move about and look out either side of the train. The train does not speed so there’s time to point out wildlife along the river, high rock formations, and “spooky” white debarked trees on hillsides.
It was a lovely day for all three of us and we highly recommend this excursion for families with children. A treat for a grandchild was also a wonderful, memorable day for his grandparents!
翻译:我和丈夫带着5岁的孙子参加了“歹徒劫车”主题活动。从购票、在埃尔金出发,到后来的劫车情节、美味的午餐,最后返回车站,整个活动组织得井然有序。
列车上的工作人员十分友善,那些“歹徒”的装扮与举止也极为逼真。我们事先已告诉孙子这只是“扮演游戏”,但当那些“坏人”登上列车时,他依然瞪大眼睛、惊呆不已。整整4个小时里他都兴致勃勃,大部分时间我们都待在露天的行李车厢里,他可以在那里自由走动,还能从火车两侧欣赏风景。火车行驶速度并不快,因此我们有足够时间指给他看河边的野生动植物、高耸的岩层,以及山坡上那些树皮剥落后显得十分“诡异”的白色树木。
对我们三个人来说,那是美好的一天;我们强烈推荐这项旅游项目给带孩子的家庭。能给孙辈带来这样的体验,也真是件美妙的事啊。对他的祖父母来说,这是一个难忘的一天!
