"Thomas is a useful train"

My nephew is obsessed with Thomas the Train and after my dad watched him for a weekend, he became obsessed too. My dad obsessed with things is a very bad thing.

So my dad came over to help with something and all he kept saying "Thomas is a useful train" and that brought me to this post. NorthEast is known for the amount of train track we have. On the walk down to the river, the path crosses numerous train tracks. I don't know if it is a family things, but I also love trains. The first picture is from a bridge that has like a billion tracks under it. The picture below is from the river. There is a bridge that trains follow....beautiful...
