The Panama Canal Railway

We rode the Panama Canal train! It is a railway line that links the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. The rout is 47.6 miles across the Isthmus of Panama from Colon (Atlantic) to Balboa (Pacific). Construction started in 1850 and took 5 years to complete. It was integral in the construction of the Panama Canal.
It took us through towns,
 And across waters. Oh, and in those waters I saw a Crocodile... that was cool.
Trains are fun, they come with so much history and romance.
 We had a great ride.
