    This 4-hour round-trip excursion rolls past historic buildings, through a tunnel, alongside a mountain stream, past two reservoirs and through beautiful Pennsylvania woodlands on its way to Tobyhanna, Pennsylvania. This small village, nestled in the Pocono Mountains, boasts a restored passenger-freight station built in 1908.  Additionally, each trip may include a walking tour to a former "Ice House" that once served the railroad.

    Powered by a historic diesel locomotive, passengers ride in DL&W suburban or MU (Multiple-Unit)-trailer passenger cars built between 1914 and the mid-1930s, or in CNJ suburban coaches that date from the mid-1920s. These cars are not air-conditioned; dress appropriately for the weather.

    Reservations are strongly recommended, and may be made by phoning (570) 340-5204 daily between 9 am - 4 pm.

    This train excursion is not handicapped accessible. When you phone for reservations, please let the ticket clerk know if you require special assistance.
