Golden Spike Rally

As a member of the Golden Spike Chapter of FMCA (Family Motor Coach Association), I attended a fun rally where about 15 coaches gathered at an RV park in Fairview, OR where the Union Pacific tracks went right by our campsites. We had a great time visiting and eating as we watched trains go by on our first day.





Our second day, we took the Brunch Train on the Mount Hood Railroad. This was a 4-hour round trip to the town of Parkdale on a vintage train where they served a meal while we were watched the fabulous scenery going by our train car windows.

We paused for a group picture at the station in Hood River before boarding the train.













When we arrived at the station in Parkdale, we were able to get off the train and streatch our legs for a while and get a good look at Mt. Hood.




All too soon, we were on our way back through the forest to the station in Hood River.
