Railroad tickets

[jennk1425]

Has anyone ever made railroad tickets for their kids? My son loves trains and the one time he got a "ticket" to ride a train (they even punched it for him) he was more fascinated by the ticket than the ride! I'd love a Disney Magic Kingdom Railroad ticket for him to take on his train ride and then put in our scrapbook later. Any ideas?

That one sounds like fun...I will play around with the idea!

I also would love this!! My son is also a train fanatic. It is the first thing we have to do when we go to the Magic Kingdom.
I also love the idea of being able to use in my scrapbook or photo album (yes I still am old school and print all my disney pictures!).
Thank you and what great idea!

Here is what I have so far (please don't quote this image). I have spent the last week raising $12,000 for a state championship ring ceremony and my brain is a little bit fried. What do you think so far? What are some things you would like added?

I DELETED THIS IMAGE TO MAKE ROOM IN MY PHOTOBUCKET, BUT YOU CAN FIND THE FINISHED COUPON IN MY 4SHARED FILE IN THE LINK IN MY SIGNATURE, THEN LOOK IN THE "COUPON - TICKET" FILE.

That looks cool! If I could, I would add some filligree to the corners as seen in the corner of this poster http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4b/Magic_Kingdom_-_Walt_Disney_World_Railroad_poster.jpg

Or mabe some filligree mickey ears? In gold. And I can't find anything online, but wouldn't it be cool to add a semi-transparent layer of a main street station line drawing behind the text?
Man, I wish I had skills. And, congrats on raising all that money! Holy cats, that amazing!

Thanks...$12,000 is especially great as I live in a town of 5,000 and Michael Irvin is going to be the speaker. Who would have thought a little school like ours could get him.

Anyways...I will play with it a little more later or tomorrow. If any other DISigners want to take a stab at it...feel free to jump in.

I love it just as it is! Perfect for a little boy that adores trains.

I put an engineer cap on Mickey in case anyone wants to use that somehow...

These are so cute. I was wondering if you could change it to make the train a Thomas Train? My son is having a Thomas the Train 3rd birthday and I wanted to send all the kids a ticket in their invitation. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks Dolly.
