  3. 4.5 WK&S Railroad (56 reviews)
    - All Abord The Kempton!

    WK&S Railroad image
    Love the Kempton. Run by volunteers, so they all are way into their jobs. Nice model train yard in a caboose. Very Kid friendly. Inexpensive kid food (corn dogs) at the snack bar. Excellent experience for small children as the round trip ride is about 45 min, and because the track is a single track run, the kids get to see the engine move from one end to the other and watch it "hook up". Check for special events, all are lots of fun - we just witnessed the train robbery. My grandchildren (3rd generation passengers) bought it hook, line, and sinker. There is a great playground across from the parking area, and The Kempton Hotel is on the way with good food, streaming The Disney Channel after a train run. I highly recommend it. See more..

    What a treat to ride the train through the countryside. Especially lovely at the holidays, and there's a Santa train! Great for the kids, for a date, or just a little adventure. So glad that they keep this history alive- and in Kutztown! Safe, clean and fun, with friendly engineers! Enjoy the beautiful historic train station too!
