We really enjoyed the Train Singer. He made the trip a real happy place to be. The Bar server was also great fun. We all enjoyed the tide & wound to it again.

This is a very family friendly and entertaining experience!
From the ticket sale to the conductor and and all the staff - professional, friendly and engaging - all served up with smiles!
I recommend being in the open air car and drinking a Skunk Train Amber Ale!
Going back again!

Excellent time with the grand children they loved the conductor.and the experience of riding a train through the redwoods

I really liked the Railroad Singer! I also found the train itself to be of interest, particularly how the engine changed directions.

Riding on a vintage railroad through the redwoods was awesome. It was fun to be in a restored coach car being pulled by an old Diesel engine.

Pleasant day and only a handful of riders on the train. Cars were clean and masks and social distancing observed by all. Conductor offered interesting commentary along the trip, but a drive in the Navarro Redwoods State Park offers significantly more redwoods if that’s what interests you in this trip. $2 for a handful (literally) of popcorn was a bit of a shock, even on a tourist event like this.

Nice ride through some woods with some redwoods. A bit disappointing and overpriced. Enjoyed the singer. Outdoor car was pleasant. Wouldn't do it again.
From $70.15
