Train themed 2nd bday party - any tips, suggestions, etc
Luke's 2nd bday party theme is trains. Not specifically Thomas, although that is his favorite right now.
Looking for some ideas. Specifically on the cake, decorations, favors, etc.
TIA

I wonder if you could get a track with a battery powered train to go around on the cake 
Maybe make train tickets as the invitations ??

My daughter is into trains, too..
I've just started planning...
I was thinking about getting the train mini-cake pan from Williams Sonoma & getting the Thomas & Caboose tent from Toys R Us for playing in. Cedarhurst Paper (and some places on-line) have Thomas paper goods, but they also have cool locomotive paper goods too.
This site can be helpful too:

We just had a thomas themed 2nd bday for DS last weekend, everything was thomas but for favors I got train chocolate molds (not thomas) from AC Moore and the bags of chocolate to melt and made train chocolate favors.

I have to charge the battery on my camera but for rmy DS christening we made the favors. It was a train made from lifesavers, a pack of gum, a chocolate kiss and a hershey's nugget chocolate. I will post it tomorrow when I get home from work. It's adorable!!

Baskin Robbins has a Thomas cake, and the Thomas goes around on a track on top of the cake. You can get engineer hats from oriental trading for favors.
