We
rode
the
“Niles
Canyon
Train
of
Lights”
in
the
Dome
Car
which
is
a
little
more
money
than
the
general
admission.
I
wanted
to
ride
this
train
because
my
mother
rode
this
train
or
one
just
like
it
in
the
50’s
from
Boston
to
California
when
her
family
moved
here.
For
her
it
was
an
amazing
trip
down
memory
lane.
By
boarding
at
the
Sunol
station
the
dome
car
was
the
last
car
of
the
train
which
we
had
to
walk
quite
a
distance.
Not
easy
for
someone
in
her
80’s.
The
dome
car
holds
32
people
which
16
can
ride
in
the
dome
in
one
direction
and
the
other
16
ride
in
the
lower
section
of
the
car.
At
the
half
way
point
you
switch
places
so
everyone
gets
a
turn.
At
night
there
is
not
much
to
see
from
the
dome
so
I
would
have
rather
picked
a
car
closer
to
the
entrance
so
my
mother
would
not
have
had
to
walk
so
far.
The
train
is
lit
up
and
beautiful
on
its
own
but
it’s
far
more
impressive
from
the
outside.
Santa
came
by
to
visit
every
child
and
cookies
and
cider
was
available
in
the
dome
car.
