Autumn's so fleeting, especially when it comes to the colorful landscape, that we really have to make the most of - and savor - every moment. While we can usually admire the fall foliage with a leisurely stroll around our neighborhood, we might also want to embark on an autumn adventure. This train ride in Pennsylvania showcases some of the most striking fall foliage in the state.
