I have another silly question

My 4 year old is really into trains... and after readiong some of the Califirnia tourism things I have been getting I see on a map something by Knotts called "Big Train McDonalds" is that called that because it has a train theme or is it the name of the street it is on or something? It looks like it is by a Ripleys Museum I have googled "big Train McDonalds" and get nothing

You peaked my curiousity and I googled it as well, I just added California to your search. I found one sentence in this pdf file. Apparently, one of the largest LGB model train displays is there

Hope this helps!

Thank you! Now I have to decide if I am willing to sit in a McDondlas for 4 hours while he stares at trains

I just did another search on google: train museum, California. If you're going to San Diego, they have a Model Train Museum. I don't know anything about it, but it certainly looks interesting. That might be better than sitting in a McDonald's for 4 hours, if you are traveling south to San Dieog during your visit.

i've been to the model train museum in balboa park. i have some photos i'd have to dig out as i don't think i ever uploaded them. it's okay. it's basically a local group of hobbyists. actually there was one display that was really neat.
