The friendly train set

[carly_kai]

Besides having a lot of steam engines, boilers and stuff, the Pump House Steam Museum in Kingston is also home to the train set that was used on the Friendly Giant.

I, of course, am too young to have watched Bob Homme as the Friendly Giant with his sidekicks Jerome the giraffe and Rusty the rooster.

This turned out to be more interesting than what I anticipated.

At first glance,
I thought you were going to tell us that rail travellers in Canada
were an affable lot.
