The Portola railroad museum is running a excursion train this Saturday December 10th in Portola, Ca. (about 1 hr from Reno, Nv) This would be a great opportunity to take the kids and be a kid yourself. You can also see what a great display of railroad history they have on rails. This is a great opportunity since they are closed for the winter. They are located off Hwy 70 in Portola, Ca. and their phone is 1-800-995-6057
