    I understand some negative reviews. The ride is pleasant but not spectacular. The station and area around the station aren't well maintained. The train is run by one paid employee and the rest of the crew are all volunteers who are well versed in the train and area. Some windows were blotched so you do need to find a seat where the view is unobstructed. I'd skip the extra "mine" tour. Others complained about the "wine" tour. The ride is about 90 minutes. The view of the Delaware river is very nice. Folks seemed to really enjoy the "Polar Express" ride with characters including Mr and Mrs Claus. We took the Halloween ride. I believe each ride is basically the same. The ride is about 90 minutes round trip. See more..

    The " Sunset Limited" ride was great. Beautiful sunset over the farmlands. The open windows , low lights , rocking train and rail sounds provided a travel back in time feel. A ten for me !!! See more..
