My kids are too old for mini trains now, but at one point they loved them and would beg us for rides whenever we saw one. For this layout, I used one of my sketches and pulled out some long-retired CTMH paper with a Disney theme. Even though I wasn't scrapping Disney, the colors and feel seemed right, plus I added some dark green to match the colors on the train.

What a great layout for your fond memories of these train rides! I remember loving those too when I was a kid (way, way back when LOL!). Thanks so much for sharing with us at the Tic Tac Toe challenge this week!
Those colors are perfect for this layout! My son has grown out of this but he did the same thing every time we saw one. Thank you for playing with us at Heart 2 Heart!
