Tait’s Eight: 8 Reasons why I love Fort Edmonton Park

When our grandson Nicholas was 2 years old, he was a big fan of Thomas the Tank Engine. My wife Joan quickly took the cue and took him  to Fort Edmonton Park to ride the Park’s train. Nicholas meet the train crew and quickly became a  fan of the Park.

Over the years, Nicholas got to know the train crew of the steam train, known as “the 107”, especially engineers Brooke Edwards and Robin Benbow.

In 2016 Brooke helped Nicholas become the first junior conductor at Fort Edmonton Park
