October 6 we traveled to Salva, KY where we camped while visiting Frankfort and Versailles, KY.
We are nestled under a hill with no cell phone service here. No wifi either. We drove into Frankfort Saturday (20 miles) for breakfast and then visited the Kentucky History Museum. Very nice museum with so many exhibits we couldn't cover it all!
From Frankfort we drove to Versailles to see the Bluegrass Scenic Railroad and museum. The pumpkin train left at 2 p.m. and we leisurely toured the train museum. The railroad schedules several special events throughout the year including Civil War Trains, Mystery Theater Trains, Ronald McDonald Clown trains, Halloween Haunted Trains, Pumpkin trains, and Santa Claus Trains.
Sunday was rainy, so we drove to Hardee's for breakfast and then to Frankfort for groceries and spent the rest of the day inside.
On Monday we drove to Chattanooga, TN. Tuesday we drove to the TN Valley Railroad museum and walked around looking at the rolling stock. We obtained tickets for Wednesday's train ride, and then drove to the Chickamauga/Chattanooga National Military Park where we saw the movie and toured the museum. We had been here previously, so did not drive the battlefield.
The train ride was only 6 miles, but we were able to watch the engine being turned around on their turntable, and visited their repair shop. After lunch we visited Rock City. More on that in my next posting.
