Georgia State Train Museum Savannah Tricentennial Park
On our way to Disney World, we decided to stop at the Georgia State Train Museum in Savannah Georgia at Tricentennial Park. Everyone knows that i am a fanatic when it comes to trains. We videoed most of the trip. It was very enjoyable and a treat to any train fan young or old.
Below is a link to their website.
You can take a ride on a train, also ride a hand rail car and see all the facilities. This is an amazing place.

Georgia State Railroad Museum Savannah 062017 Part 1
Georgia has had a long history of railroading. This museum is dedicated to what existed as the Central Georgia Railroad.
The museum's website offers a lot more than this brief video, so I suggest you check it out:
It also has on display several working model train layouts.
A visit can only lead to an appreciation of the mechanical skills of those who kept these brutes running way before cars!

Places to see in ( Savannah - USA )
Savannah, a coastal Georgia city, is separated from South Carolina by the Savannah River. It’s known for manicured parks, horse-drawn carriages and antebellum architecture. Its historic district is filled with cobblestoned squares and parks such as Forsyth Park shaded by oak trees covered with Spanish moss. At the center of this picturesque district is the landmark, Gothic-Revival Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist.
Each year Savannah attracts millions of visitors to its cobblestone streets, parks, and notable historic buildings: the birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low (founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA), the Georgia Historical Society (the oldest continually operating historical society in the South), the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences (one of the South's first public museums), the First African Baptist Church (one of the oldest African-American Baptist congregations in the United States), Temple Mickve Israel (the third oldest synagogue in America), and the Central of Georgia Railway roundhouse complex (the oldest standing antebellum rail facility in America).
Savannah's downtown area, which includes the Savannah Historic District, the Savannah Victorian Historic District, and 22 parklike squares, is one of the largest National Historic Landmark Districts in the United States (designated by the U.S. government in 1966). Downtown Savannah largely retains the original town plan prescribed by founder James Oglethorpe (a design now known as the Oglethorpe Plan). Savannah was the host city for the sailing competitions during the 1996 Summer Olympics held in Atlanta.
Savannah is known as the 'Hostess City of the South' – and a good hostess will stuff you to the gills with all things battered and fried before sending you on your merry way. This is a city where people come to indulge in decadent, traditional Southern and soul food, but top chefs are also reimagining things with a 'New South' cuisine, where classic themes and ingredients meet innovative preparations. With Savannah's proximity to the ocean, seafood features heavily on most menus, and good grub doesn't stop at Southern staples – fans of diverse international fare can find great options, too.
Dubbed the Creative Coast (with a local entrepreneurial organization of the same name), Savannah boasts a vibrant arts and design scene that's fueled not only by the Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD), one of the finest art schools in the country with students and faculty from far and wide; but also bolstered by the natives and transplants whose initiatives make the arts more inclusive and accessible. From superb museums and galleries in the Historic District to the Starland section between Midtown and the Victorian District catering to locally crafted pursuits, creativity is the lifeblood coursing through Savannah's artsy heart.

If we haven’t met, Hi!!! I’m Erin and I share beautiful stories.
In December of 2011 my husband and I read a book that completely changed our lives, it changed the way we approached the new year, and as a result, we went from existing as two people dreaming of a better future to two people LIVING a better future. We made changes to improve our health and quality of life. We fell in love with running, rekindled our love and appreciation for each other and on my husband’s birthday in 2013 we found out that our family was going to expand.
Fast forward a few years and now you can find us living in the beautiful city of Miami, Florida and chasing our three girls around, making as many memories as possible.
