Need some ideas

[JROESEL]

Good afternoon gentleman, this isn’t hunting related, but I have no idea where to post it,
My little ones are wanting to go ride a train this fall, October-November, does anyone know of any that are good for kids and have other things to do for them around where the station is??? We will probably stay for a couple days and spend some time there, prefer a train ride for couple hours or so, any help will be greatly appreciated, looking around north ga, tn, nc, area
Mods if this needs moved, just let me know please

I guess it depends on who you are and where you post. I posted something about a food plot at the around a campfire and that's supposed to be to talk about anything... they moved me to the correct spot ? these people are the best on here. Anyway good luck on your trip my kids would love to do that too

Blue Ridge Scenic Railway in N GA.
Good luck!

totally agree! Great scenery all along a river valley. I saw a lot of families with kids when I rode around early November a few years ago.

I second the Blue Ridge Scenic. Took my grands there a few years ago and they loved it! Rode from Blue Ridge to McCaysville, then had about a hour wait for the return. Went to a small ice cream shop for refreshments while waiting. The train travels about 25 mph alongside the river for the majority of the way.

They have it all. Museum, outdoor static display of engines and equipment, short steam local ride including a stop at the restoration shop. Longer trips, and sometimes Thomas the train visits.
Hiwassee Loop

Summerville Steam Special will be our next choice. it includes a turntable demonstration (Engine turnaround) on the historic table in Summerville. 9 hour trip.

This is a nice place to visit, especially for the little ones. You can check online and see when Santa is going to be there.

That Smokey Mountain Railroad is the one I was thinking. They do different themes at different times.

If you ever get to Sault St Marie Ontario, take a trip on the Agawa Canyon tour train .....It's fantastic.

We did the blue ridge railway, I think it was Christmas in July or something.
There is also one in Alabama that does a polar express themed train ride. Based on the hot chocolate scene
