My wife and I took that ride a couple years ago. I had also just purchased a Panasonic Lumix FZ-100 DMC-FZ100 | PRODUCTS | LUMIX | Digital Camera | Panasonic Global. Took some great pictures on that trip!

If you take that train ride originating from Cumberland, MD, make sure you sit on the right hand side of the train. Otherwise your main views will be of the side of the mountains.
