High Water, Eagles Overhead, and Thunder! What an Adventure!
Potomac Eagle Scenic Railroad的点评
点评:We were on a weekend vintage railroad experience and the Potomac Eagle was our first stop. After an overnight stay in a B&B in Capon Bridge (it's just south of Paw Paw and north of Bubbling Springs!) we ate breakfast in a tiny hometown diner on a side street in Romney before heading out of town for the Potomac Eagle. The crew was welcoming and informative and we thoroughly enjoyed the journey. A heavy storm resulted in the Potomac being 10-12' higher than normal but it kept our attention. We saw 7 eagles, some in flight, some on branches...and multiple nests high in the pines. The train stopped three times to clear the tracks of fallen branches and rocks which just added to the adventure! An old train, yes; but great fun for the whole family. The attendant on our car was a great help, knowledgeable and entertaining. It was a great way for us to start our journey. Oh, the weather held out until we were half way back to the station...then it poured and we loved it! (Even kept our window open!) Glad we went on the Eagle.
翻译:我们周末体验了复古铁路,第一站是波托马克雄鹰号。在卡彭桥(Capon Bridge)的一家民宿住了一晚(它就在波波桥(Paw Paw)南边,泡泡泉(Bubbling Springs)北边!)之后,我们在罗姆尼(Romney)一条小街上的一家老乡小餐馆吃了早餐,然后出发去城外的波托马克雄鹰号。工作人员热情好客,知识渊博,我们非常享受这次旅程。一场暴风雨导致波托马克河水位比平时高了10到12英尺(约3到4米),但这仍然吸引了我们的注意力。我们看到了7只雄鹰,有的在飞翔,有的在树枝上……还有好几个巢穴在高高的松树上。火车停了三次,清理掉落的树枝和岩石,这为这次冒险增添了更多乐趣!没错,这是一列老火车;但对全家来说都很有趣。我们车上的乘务员非常乐于助人,知识渊博,而且很风趣。这对我们来说是一个很棒的旅程的开始。哦,天气一直很好,直到我们回到车站的一半路程……然后下起了倾盆大雨,我们太喜欢了! (甚至把窗户打开了!)很高兴我们登上了 Eagle 号。
