As I stopped for lunch in Fennimore, WI I saw this train alongside the road and it looked like it could use a little bit of love. As I looked around the area I discovered that it was known as a "Dinky" train. This would be a 3-foot gauge train line that operated in Wisconsin from 1878 - 1926. The train sits behnd a fence, but you are able to go up into the train to look around. There is a museum and a mural right next to this spot. It looks as if at one point there was a children's train ride that went around the train itself. This ride is either only during the summer months or long since closed down.
