Actually, the engine was displayed between the carousel and the depot, way up at track level. They must have been digging pretty close and lowered it to the level in the picture to keep it from falling when the ledge it was on collapsed from a heavy rain.
Is that the Henry Ford train?
Man, they have dug down, and it looks like they'll have to go even farther to get the full pond in there. Why did they spare that tree? Are they actually going to keep it somehow, or are they trying to transplant it?
Yes, it is quite deep, and closer to the railroad track than I figured. Passengers on the train should be able to spit and hit the Splash Battle from the train.
Just kidding about the kids and the carousel. It really is nearly the only reason I go, just to hear them squeal with excitement.
My daughter is quite upset about her carousel being removed. Her favorite horse, Princess, has been put out to pasture.
