Being married means I get to do something I like and then he gets to do something he likes! I don’t know how or who but somehow Paul found out they have a Railroad Museum in Savannah so we had to find it! After walking about 5 miles seeing the beautiful homes and learning the colorful history of Savannah we had to walk another 1/2 mile to find the Railroad museum. The museum was at the actual site of the Savannah Railroad and much of the roundhouse still exists.
Steam Train that you could ride
Roundhouse
They did have a couple of executive cars they were restoring and we got to tour. They were pretty nice inside and bigger than my RV!
The other thing Paul found fascinating was the process of making taffy! He won’t eat it but he stood there for 30 minutes watching the guys make it and then the process of getting it into the bin across the room!
Pulling the candy into the machine
Before it gets to this spot it has to be stretched on the arms, color added, flavor added and then it is ready to lay on these rollers and stretch until it reaches the point the candy maker can feed it in where it is cut, wrapped and put onto the conveyor belt for its ride to its final destination in the store before we can buy it!
Look closely, it is riding along in a tray above the sign!
After traveling about 40 feet along overhead conveyors the candy drops into the funnel that feeds it into the bin where you pick it up
And now you buy $15 worth because you can’t live without it in the cute container they provide for you! Candy in a souvenir tin! Genius!
