The train

In Hania, trains have wheels. They're used during the tourist season which runs till the end of October, with scheduled timetables to provide scenic tours to tourists. This particular train is waiting for passengers at the old port.



We live in a village which has a lot of fields surrounding most of the houses. The area is included in the scenic sights of the town. This train passes our houses every day at midday right throughout the tourist season.

  3. We had a tour with a train like this at Key West and St. Augustine(Florida), five years ago. We had such a good time. The kids loved it.

  4. I noticed the timetables and leaflets - useless to us as not accessible but the routes looked interesting. Have to say they don't look very comfortable for a long tour.

  6. Parking this would be challenging, generally......i think it can only go forwards...not because it does not have a reverse gear but because reversing a 4 linked vehicle needs 3-4 brains to work out how you should turn the wheel at the "engine" so that the last carriage goes the way you want it to :-D :-D
