Looking for Input on the Grand Canyon Train.

We rode the train to the canyon and back about four years ago. When we got back the steam engine broke down and they had to switch to a diesel backup. The ride was not particularly exciting or scenic; just interesting. They did have a couple of guys dressed as outlaw cowboys climb onboard and "rob" the passengers. Also a guy who played guitar and sang for us. That made the long ride to the canyon easier. We stayed in the Grand Canyon Railroad RV Resort in Williams; a large parking lot-like campground. Very nice with full h'ups, no shade but so close to town you can walk easily to restaurants and grocery store. Playground very close by; golf course a short drive north of town and most of all beautiful scenery around Old Route 66. :C
