Testimonials: "We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of the train--fun to go
between cars, ride outside on the back of the last car, walk around the rail yards."
"I absolutely loved the train ride. My 11-year-old and I had a blast."
"This train ride stands out as the very best train trip of my life.
The scenic beauty is spectacular, the historic guides in the open car
were very friendly and did a great job explaining the history and countryside
along the way, and the Parlor Car was comfortable and beautiful."
