I like the wood, I dont love the drop shadow on the footer text. I think it would look fine flat. Also with the menu bar and then your photos also sort of being a menu bar its a bit redundant and probably not needed. But again the wood looks nice and the color scheme is nice. I like the slideshow...( hehe)

I also enjoy the wood and I like the train logo. I did notice one thing you may want to change, on the support us page the sub-navigation in the main area doesn't stay there when you click on one of the links. So it makes users click the back button if they want to go back or accidentally clicked on the wrong one. Just something to think about. Other than that it look great.

I like your logo. It is very good visually, traditional qualities like the wood grain and torn paper edge. I like the slide show, nice touch, Very good redesign.

I agree about the image navigation is redundant but it was requested by the client. I'll see if I can convince them to make it just pics instead of links.

I really like how warm and welcoming your site is. The rollovers on the images are really cool and creative. The wood texture works well with your layout. Nice work.

I think they will love your site. Looks like it is almost done as well. It is hard to come up with a suggestion... perhaps maybe the text not quite so close to the right sidebar?
Really great job that is very well done.

I enjoy the site, especially the slideshow. I like the wood, and the side notes with the upcoming events, hours, etc. Nice site!

i love the logo! however, i think to make it more effective, you should make the train look more like it's engraved into the wood like the text. nice site overall!
