A trip on the "Cape Cod Central Railroad" with grandson Alex, who lives for trains.
The trip left Hyannis, travelled west paralleling 6A, and then south along the canal, and then returned the same way. Beautiful views, smooth ride, nice narration. Overly expensive for the time involved, but worth doing once, for Alex's sake.
