Actually planned to see if the Rail Runner would be running on Fathers Day just to take a ride. I'll plan to attend the program.

No, the train leaves 'way too late on Sunday. Maybe we should stay overnight in Santa Fe to get there early enough. The Paolo Soleri only seats about 300, and news of its impending demolition this summer has increased interest, too.

It seats more than 500, not 300.
