Spending Family Time on West 7th Street in Fort Worth - November & December Events

Our family is VERY excited about several upcoming events on West 7th Street in Fort Worth during November and December! Here's a list of family-focused activities:

Visit Grapevine Week! - Grapevine Vintage Railroad! #grapevine

Sometimes, I feel especially fortunate to live in Texas because we have a wealth of experiences for singles, families, and others! Here is one of the resources that I hope to experience soon, but I am super excited that it is available and it is within a stone's throw of my house.

Here is the promotion video from last year:

This travel post is focused on the Grapevine Vintage Railroad in Grapevine, TX!

This railroad is not just a simple ride from one place to another, but it is an interactive journey with the conductor, railroad staff, and sometimes a robber on horseback.  ;)

Almost every day the train is available for the following routes:

- Grapevine to Fort Worth Stockyards

- Stockyard Trinity River Ride

- Grapevine Fun Train

The first class and tour class rates are available. I will admit that I am not sure of the difference on a day train, instead of an overnight train.

Special Trains:

- Great Train Robberies (Saturdays and Sundays)

August 2013
