A Day Out With Thomas - B & O Railroad Museum Welcomes Thomas The Tank Engine

My youngest son, Liam, used to love Thomas the Tank Engine.  When he was very small he was sick a lot with allergies, asthma and febrile seizures.  One of the things that gave him great pleasure and hours of entertainment were the Thomas stories.  We had all the videos and the books and he would watch the movies for hours and every night we'd read a story, in fact we read from the Tales of Thomas so often the book eventually fell apart.  When he was a little older we visited Thomas at B & O Railroad Museum and also in Strasburg, PA. 

Now that he's 13, he no longer reads those stories, nor does he play with the trains or watch the movies but he has boxed them up and wants to save them for when he, himself, has children of his own.  However, he still asks to go to the B & O Railroad Museum.  He wants to be an engineer when he grows up and design and build trains.

Thomas & Friends will be at the B & O Railroad Museum on May 4th through 6th.  There will be 25 minute train rides with a full size Thomas the Tank Engine, opportunities to meet Sir Topham Hatt, Storytelling, Live Music, Build with Mega Blocks and Much More.   The B & O Railroad Museum is located at 901 W. Pratt Street in Baltimore, MD 21223.  Tickets can be purchased online by visiting the website.   Tickets are $19 and well worth the smiles.  Your child will talk about it forever.

A friend told me about a cool site that rates the walkability of 2,500 neighborhoods nation wide. Walk Score calculates the walkability of an address by locating nearby stores, restaurants, schools, parks, etc. Walk Score measures how easy it is to live a car-lite lifestyle—not how pretty the area is for walking. This is especially important to note for Pigtown. I wouldn't feel safe walking to or in many of these businesses, but maybe that's just me.
