"I bought a reservation for the Hands on the Throttle experience for my husband as a gift. Booking it was easy. The engineers were exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. My husband really enjoyed being able to drive a locomotive. And I was permitted to ride along to get photos to share with others. It was a terrific experience!"

– Robin H. · Tripadvisor"We did the dining car option on the fall foliage tour. Very well run trip. Train was on time and we were tickled when the conductor yelled "All Aboard!" . We paid a bit extra to do the dining car, which included lunch and dessert while we watched the beautiful fall scenery from Cumberland to Frostburg. We had an hour to explore Frostburg, and then it was back to the train for the ride back to Cumberland. It was fun to walk through the various train cars and imagine we were back in time. A fun experience we look forward to doing again."

The evening murder mystery was fun and the actors were interesting and funny. We highly recommend you give one of their events a try. It will be worth the time and money."
– Phil P. · Tripadvisor"Had a wonderful time riding the train from Cumberland to Frostburg, then riding our bikes back down the mountain. Booking, check-in and loading the bikes was very easy. Lots of parking at the station. The conductors and people who load and unload the bikes could not have been more patient and helpful. Train ride was beautiful, comfortable and fun."
