putting out feelers here to see if anyone is interested in riding the train
from the Kirkwood Station to Jefferson City for the Paparazzi & Pasta Palooza!
> http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=gc1jrz7> The train
leaves Kirkwood Sat. AM at 8:59 and arrives in Jeff City at 10:51 AM. The
return train leaves at 7:03 PM and arrives in Kirkwood at 8:58PM. There is also
a train leaving Jeff at 10:33 AM and arriving in Kirkwood at 10:51 AM if anyone
wants to stay over night. Sunday also has the 7:03 train too. They have a snack
counter on all the trains with, sandwiches, soda, coffee, etc.> > Remember,
these times may change due to a derailment, flood, cows on the tracks, and
freight trains (freight trains have the right of way).> > Round trip fares are
$34; $30.60 for AAA members, and $28.90 for Seniors (62 and over). I'm not sure
if this includes tax. Everyone would be responsible for their own tickets which
can be purchased thru Amtrak at http://tickets.amtrak.com/itd/amtrak> > How we
get from the train station to the event (3 miles) is still in discussion. 1
option is to rent a car(s) or a 15 passenger van. This way we can cache until
the event starts at 5PM. Or we can keep the car/van for those that want to stay
overnight and can on Sunday until the morning or evening train back to
Kirkwood. Problem is just an Enterprise and Avis are near the train station and
Enterprise is closed on Sundays so we pay until Monday AM. Avis closes at noon
on Sunday so that may be a problem too. > > We could make the trainride an
event if there's enough interest.> > Let me know if there's any interest in
this.> > > ****************************************> For List Info or To make
