  2. Rienzi Celebrates Boxing Day, a British Holiday Tradition

    Dec 10, 2018 - Christmas CrackersAn activity at Rienzi that nods to this gift tradition is a game played with Christmas crackers.

    Dec 15, 2016 - The little buildings offer a wealth of detail. Is there anything else you’d like to add? I'd like to think the trains will stir up fond childhood memories in adults and kindle a new interest for children.

It features a realistic start-up progression of sounds with coaches dedicated to notable Texans, including Sam Houston, Edward Burleson, and David G. Burnet.
