The Whisky River Railway at Little Amerricka Amusement Park, Marshall, Wisconsin

While it was one long train ride it was a really relaxing and fun ride out into the country.

Here's one more photo of the Whisky River Railroad before we get back into the park.  This was an epic ride and if you love a good ride through the countryside then a visit to Little Amerricka and a ride on The Whisky River Railway should be on your itinerary.

The Meteor is the newest addition to Little Amerricka.  It opened in 2007 but has quite a history before that.

The Meteor began it's life as a kit coaster from the Philadelphia Toboggan Company at the long defunct Kiddytown amusement park that was once in Norridge Illinois.  It was built in 1953.  At that time the baby boomers were getting old enough to ride so small parks geared to them sprung up all around the country.  So PTC started offering kits for sale with everything needed for a coaster including wood, rails, lift, train and instructions on how to build it and several rides like this one and the Little Dipper at Six Flags Great America.
