Take the train to visit picturesque Pennsylvania Dutch Country. An antique train, that is.
Rolling farmlands set the scene for a leisurely tour on the Strasburg Rail Road. It's a 45-minute ride to Paradise, Pennsylvania and back.
There are scenic tours during the day, attracting railroad buffs of all ages. It's a great family excursion.
There's also a sunset ride, for adults only, with wine and cheese, that combines the romance of antique railroading with -- well -- the romance of wine and cheese at sunset.
Strasburg Rail Road is America's oldest short-line, celebrating 50 years since its rebirth in 1958. That's when a group of twenty-four visionaries saved the line from abandonment, keeping it alive to introduce and entertain a new generation to the wonders of travel by train.

Train travel is green travel.
