Lynne's parents called yesterday and wanted to meet us in Temple today for lunch. So we loaded up this morning and headed south. We met at the Temple mall and had a great lunch at Fuddruckers. Then we wandered around the mall, found a sale at Dave and Berry's, so we bought some shirts and shoes. After a few hours we said goodbye to Mimi and Papa and headed home. Before we left Temple though we stopped by the Ironhorse District near downtown.
I had seen this loop of track before and always wondered why it was there so we stopped and walked around a bit.
The tracks appeared to be about 24" gauge. It was spiked to pressure treated 4x4's.
These hand cars were locked up on a siding at one end of the loop. There were four of them. I bet they would be fun to ride around on! Maybe someday we will catch the park open and take a ride. It was getting cold so we loaded up and headed home.

I don't remember seeing those pumper cars last time we were there!
Is this near the old depot?
