Description
We Had a Great Time!
This piece imagines a world where it is the animals who get to enjoy a day of riding the train, with their wild counterparts driving the train. The passengers are thanking the train crew and the little train for such a wonderful day, and saying, “We had a great time!” upon arrival in Seward.
Printed in Alaska on matte paper that meets the Sustainable Forest Initiative guidelines that promote responsible management of the world’s forests.
