Last time we were in San Antonio, we rode the Brackenridge Eagle miniature train, which makes a circuit through the park of the same name. The Sunken Gardens is near the main depot and the ride isn’t that expensive, so on impulse we went again. Ann insisted on borrowing my camera and documenting the ride. She took some good pictures.
This a (miniature) RR bridge across the San Antonio River.
And the river itself, in its lily pad glory. This point isn’t very far at all from the headwaters of the river, which accounts for its small size.
The unmistakeable branches of a mesquite tree near the tracks. The line brushes up against vegetation fairly close in some spots, and the requirement is to keep your hands (and head) inside the train. It’s a good idea.
Not the most picturesque landscape, but note the Tower of the Americas in the background.
