It's a beautiful day for a fall rail ride with vibrant fall colors! We're traveling to the Arcade & Attica Railroad. A delicious luncheon will be included at Turkey Run Golf Club prior to the train excursion. Your journey aboard the Arcade & Attica Railroad begins even before you board the train. As you enter the historic station, you are surrounded by the history of railroading in America. Tour their historic station and view all the exhibits, from antique railroad lanterns to switch locks, even to an old switch stand. Nostalgic original photographs depict an era of days gone by. Next, you pass their authentic ticket office. Tour their small gift shop and snack bar while waiting to board your train. With an "All Aboard," the whistle blows, and the whoosh of the air brakes releasing can be heard. Very soon, the engineer has gotten the train up to speed and you are on your way, enjoying your 2 1/2-hour ride through history. Along the way, you will see a few random appearances of today; for the most part though, the trip is through the countryside and farmlands that have remained virtually unchanged since the line was originally laid in the 1880's. We will stop at the Made in America Store en route home with a sweet treat included to complete our wonderful fall day excursion. Lunch will be served buffet style and includes salad, chicken marsala, rigatoni with red sauce, salt potatoes, vegetables, dessert, coffee/tea/water.
