After a sixteen hour adventure in the airport and before a twelve hour trip around the countryside of Kansas, we took a trip to see the railroad museum in Wichita, Kansas. The museum itself was a very small building, so we didn't think much time would be spent at the local, to our surprise, though, there were many old train cars and engines in a lot outside the museum. The different cars and engines were really neat to walk through as there were not any ropes and we could explore to our hearts content. The day spent in the train yard presented an opportunity for a lot of neat pictures to be shot.
