Mistakes made apologies given

This was an unfortunate event. They were understaffed, which the chef attested to in a very apologetic letter to all passengers, plus the Company was gracious enough to realize the mistakes they had made and refunded the amount paid to attend the brunch. Also today...More

Good Way to Go: Burlington to Middlebury

No, it's not terribly scenic, as most of the way, the views are obstructed by trees and/or foliage, but we wanted to experience a train ride {a 1930's train car} and visit in Middlebury. The ride started in Burlington, and took 90 minutes. Once in...More

Skip this ride

We were very disappointed by this train ride through the backs of buildings, through the brush and with only 3 glimpses of Lake Champlain. The train is nice but not worth travelling on to Shelburne and back. This was probably the most boring tour I've...More

Kids Day Train Ride

The train ride was very pleasant and comfy. We had to wait along time for the train to get started,because of all the people getting on. Very nice and we will defiantly be going again soon.
