- Granite State Scenic Railway:Â Journey along the picturesque Pemigewasset River on an 80-minute round trip. Inquire about special seasonal experiences, such as the Pumpkin Festival or Santa trains.
- Cafe Lafayette Dinner Train: Enjoy a luxurious meal in a vintage dining car while traveling along the tracks near Lincoln.
- Rail Bikes: For a more active adventure, try pedaling your own rail car with Scenic Railriders or Granite State Rail Bikes, located a little south of the main White Mountains region.
These historic trains continue to welcome and entertain guests, just as they did a century ago, and are signature North Conway and White Mountain favorites!
