Virginia Scenic Railroad

After quickly selling out in May 2023 we are bringing this extremely popular train ride back! There is no question about it - there’s something positively timeless about train travel. Sure, there are faster ways to get from here to there, but there’s something magical about being on a train, especially one that offers unforgettable glimpses of the Shenandoah Valley as seen from your passenger window.  This morning, step aboard the new Virginia Scenic Railroad, Virginia's newest scenic railway experience.  This 3-hour, round trip journey is the Alleghany Special.   Venture westward from historic Staunton through beautiful farmlands, on a destination bound for the George Washington and Jefferson National Forest. As you travel towards the Blue Ridge and Alleghany Mountains, pass through this region’s iconic rural landscapes. The train turns around in the hamlet of Goshen in Rockbridge County. A delicious plated lunch is included while on board.  Once returning to Staunton, enjoy a Guided Tour of this historic town with a visit to beautiful Trinity Episcopal Church to see their twelve Tiffany window. Enjoy time to stretch your legs along the quaint downtown area before departing for home.  Don’t wait to sign up; we expect this tour to sell out quickly!
