Sorry, I'm moving around a bit and will post a new video journal over the weekend. Can I just recommend, if you happen to pass through Sacramento, the California State Railroad Museum
[link]. It houses a collection of 20 lovingly restored locomotives and railroad cars and a second floor dedicated to model railways. One of the happiest mornings I've passed in a museum it fulfilled my every romantic notion of steam travel and a slower pace of life (although the museum also documents the difficult journey to build the railroads). Sacramento itself is a charming city, much more to my taste than Las Vegas !! Love tt
