Have an idea for a new Road Scholar program?

There is a British tour company that offers train tours east of Dresden, Germany. Seems there are several old steam train routes that go into the Erzegebirge area. This was once the treasure mountains area of Germany, but when the valuable ore ran out the people switched to woodworking. They make wooden things that are quite different from Black Forest wood carving. They make scenes and those tiered kind of like pyramids that turn by the heat from candles (or electric lights). The tours do include a visit at one of these craft villages. I think Road Scholars might find a trip on one of these old trains just as interesting as do older Brits and Germans.
