点评:Took a trip on the Texas State Railroad, Palestine, Texas to Rusk, Texas. It was a 1920s theme. Really fun to see all of the ladies and gents dressed up. The trip to Rusk is sbout 25 miles and took about 1 1/2 hours. Mostly wooded area and a few small farms, so not much to see on the way. The train was very comfortable.
Our car hostess was Joyce. Very sweet lady. She’s 81 years old. Doesn’t look it. She’s been working for the railroad for 14 years. She has lots of knowledge about the train history and the area. All of the staff were very professional and very helpful. Great Customer Service. The train is really charitable and gives back to the community.
Arrived in Rusk to a catered dinner which was served outside near the water. The area was decorated for the 1920s. Very cute. A few photo opportunities were available.
It was extremely hot, so would highly recommend some lawn fans to at least give a light breeze. The menu was ok. I had grilled pork chop which was cooked before hand with a spicy seasoning. Wish that had been listed on the menu. Butter should have been available for the potatoes and roll. While the meal was ok, it was at best, just a 5 out of 10.
The costumes were wonderful however I do have one recommendation for the ladies . You may want to take your flip flops so you can change shoes when the feeling arises. I and many others went the barefoot route halfway through the event.
The event was fun and worth the adventure.

我们的车厢女主人是乔伊斯。她非常和蔼可亲。她81岁了,但看起来不像。她在铁路工作了14年。她对火车历史和当地环境了如指掌。所有工作人员都非常专业,乐于助人。客户服务也很棒。这列火车非常慈善,回馈社区。
抵达拉斯克后,我们享用了一顿在水边露天享用的外卖晚餐。周围环境装饰了20世纪20年代的风格,非常漂亮。还提供了几次拍照机会。
天气非常热,所以强烈建议带些草坪风扇,至少能吹吹风。菜单还不错。我点了烤猪排,提前用辣味调料烤好。真希望菜单上能有这道菜。土豆和面包卷应该配黄油。虽然菜品还行,但最多只能给5分(满分10分)。
服装很棒,不过我还是想给女士们提个建议。建议你们带上人字拖,这样想换鞋的时候就可以穿。我和很多人在活动进行到一半的时候就赤脚走了。
活动很有趣,值得一试。
