Join us for a journey back...

Let the gentle sounds of steel wheels gliding along the rails transport you back to a simpler time.  Nestled on the edge of the northeastern Cumberland Plateau, the tracks along Tennessee’s own New River are a path into history.  As they twist their way through the river valley, wooded forests and wide-open meadows, over 100 years of history will come alive outside your window.  This is no amusement park train ride - everything you experience here is authentic.  From the Conductor's "All Aboard" to the clang of the locomotive's bell, the New River Railway presents real railroading from an earlier era.  Join us for a journey back in time for family fun, holiday celebrations and over a century of living history.
