I tend to agree with FLL. No one is traveling by train to weirs beach. After playing skee ball for 10 minutes what else is there to do there? The train is kind of neat but I would see a lot more people walking, biking or snowmobiling between the towns and maybe having lunch or dinner and for a much longer season
