That looked like a lot of fun. Our grandson would love it. We've done the train ride in Bryson city. Plains Georgia looked like it was similar to Bryson. We love those old towns. Thanks for the tour and information. Great video, as always.

Awesome, my husband and I did the Bryson City one years ago, we want to take our kids to that one someday, love a good train ride :) Thanks so much for watching!!

Good railroad !

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

Wonderful That looks brilliant. The boys look so excited to be on that train!! We take trains for granted over here, but I'm looking forward to taking our grandsons on a train for the first time. For one reason or another, our youngest hasn't been on one yet. Have a great weekend Melissa and family.

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

Yea we dont have many trains near us, so this was such a treat and we loved it, so nostalgic, like taking a step back in time, thanks so much for watching Dave and Sue!!

[@OutOnTrail]

The concept of a "rolling state park" is pretty neat! 🙂 Enjoyed the tour of the restored train cars and learning a little bit about the history of the line 👍

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

Thanks, it was so neat, appreciate you watching!

[@lifeinamerica.veronika3341]

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

Thank you Kritika!!! Train rides are so fun, we really enjoyed this one thanks for watching :)

[@HereToCheers]

We want to do a train tour across the country. All the different types of rides sounds really cool especially the murder mystery dinner. Very informative video 👍👍

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

Yes thanks so much, they all did sound great. We would love to do the train across America also :)

[@NicoleHikesalot]

That was a very unique and interesting place and the train rude looked so much fun. Really nice that they have a snack gift shop car too. SO unique. Oh Peanut Butter ice cream, drool. Nice looking town. Yes, I believe that it was better on the way back with the sun out and feeling sleepy.

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

Thanks Nicole, that ice cream was awesome lol :)

[@virarhm6246]

Awesome place, looks a happy and delicious 💕

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

it sure is :)

[@Treegarden509]

Very beautiful sharing 👌👍 New friend 🎁🤝👈🪴🎈

[@PFAM5]

Very cool experience! Looked a little pricey, but definitely seemed worth it. Cool that it’s considered a state park!

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

It was so fun, thanks fam for watching :)

[@therapyofnature3549]

Nice place 👌

[@trvlnthru]

This scenic train ride looks great. We found similar scenic trains in North Carolina and in Virginia. We have not experienced either of them yet but we are talking about doing one or the other this fall. Jack, in fact wants to do an Amtrak train ride all the way across the country. I am not sure I am ready for that. But I would love to do this relatively short, scenic train ride through Georgia or a similar one in another state. Thanks for showing us what the experience is like!

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

That is so cool, we have thought about the same, but decided to take baby steps towards a larger train ride. There are so many little ones around, many years ago before we had kids, my husband and I did one in Bryson City, that one was so fun also 😀 thanks so much Alice for watching and commenting we really appreciate it ❤️ 💙

[@lifeinflipflops]

Thank you for the tour... A new friend here from Canada 🍁 ( Life In Flip Flops channel 🇨🇦)

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

Appreciate you!!! :)

[@tinasrandomthings2553]

Great video. Looks like a lot of fun. Our grandson would love it too.. I'm definitely gonna put it on our to-do list. That ice cream looked delicious. Ted doesn't like peanut butter but but I sure do..

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

My husband doesn't care for peanut butter either, but the kids and I do, that ice cream was awesome :) lol

[@TheAdventuresofMegGreg]

This is so cool! I have actually never been on a train before. So cool they have different events like wine & cheese and a murder mystery. Nice the drink and snack comes with the deluxe. The boys look so excited! That is so cute. Cool you can walk around and explore the train too! Oh cool and buy snacks! Wow trains have a lot more going on than I ever imagined lol! Mmm that ice cream looks good! Such a cute little town for sure! Nice you could see the sunshine on the way back, some beautiful scenery! I would be excited I got those people to wave too LOL. Fantastic video as always!! :)

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

Thank you Meg!!! I forgot to video pulled pork nachos we got on the train ride back, lol it was so good :) The kids loved it, was such fun and nostalgic, makes you feel like you stepped back in time :) Thanks for always watching!!! xoxo Melissa

[@ms.kayak7seas]

Hi Mrs. adventures Wow, this is a great deal. I can ride a train and also savor The trip by train is on my bucket list but no sure AM track... Did you book online? Oh no need I guess How was a ride? Comfortable? I like only fewer PPL in the train. Well done. All information is here! This is very cool experience, Thank YOU very much for making my day. Ciao!

[@AdventuresAreOutThere]

very comfortable ride, I recommend going on a friday during school season, since it wasn't busy at all when we went, I'm sure there summer and Fall and Christmas and sat and sundays excursions are busier :) Thanks for watching Ms.k7s! xoxo
