Colin's Little Red Caboose and Big Yellow Engine

What Colin loves about Munich

Just half a block from our apartment is the Ostbanhof (East Train Station) off Freidenstrasse, where we walk along the back side of the Ostbanhof to catch an S train, or go on under to catch the U4 or U5.
 These are some of Colin's favorite sights each time, and he loves to see the red S trains come and go. It's THE BEST FREE entertainment! Not to mention, we love how handy it is to get just about anywhere quickly from our apartment...

The Little Red Caboose

The AutoZug is a CarTrain...it carries cars to another destination, i suppose for weekend trips or commuters who don't want to drive to Frankfurt or Berlin or somewhere, I suppose? I guess it's quicker than driving and cheaper than gas or diesel for your car?

Colin is obsessed a bit with this big yellow diesel engine. We have just told him it's taking a nap. He ALWAYS wants to know why it's sitting there and not "working" in the yard! You know, like why isn't it a "very useful engine"? Anyone else subjected to watching hours of Thomas and Friends movies and episodes knows what I'm talking about. We have to make Sir Topham Hat proud!
