Getting to be popular,, we enjoyed the one hour ride to otter creek. You don't get off the train but we saw the foliage and enjoyed riding and talking with our friends

This was a lot of fun! The old train car was neat to ride in and we went past some really gorgeous views of the Moose River. The conductor was very helpful and knowledgeable, and obviously loves his job. Be sure to bring a camera and walk back to the baggage car - you get the wind in your face, some great pictures and a better sense of what it's like to ride the rails! At $12 this Saturday discount ride was a bargain.

I have been on the other railroads and this one was very very good- our conductor had lots of historical information- the rr consisted of four cars that were very cool - plus a baggage car so you could get fresh air. One of the passenger cars had full blast A/C for a hot day. Really enjoyed this ride and hop e to do it again!!!

Wow, apparently we should have ridden this train in Thendara! The section between Lake Placid and Saranac Lake was nothing like the reviews I've read here. There ride lasted about 20 minutes and the train crawled along at less than 20 mph. There was some nice scenery, but mostly just trees. There was no dining car and the passenger cars were comfortable, but nothing spectacular or historic. There was an outdoor car, but it was pouring rain and freezing, so that really wasn't an option! The conductor provided some interesting little tidbits about the area, and on the return trip played music. Who would have thought there were so many songs about the Adirondacks and the Adirondack Scenic Railroad! Both my husband and I fell asleep at different times on the ride. Also, you don't have enough time at Saranac Lake to even walk to the village before boarding the train for the return trip. I would not recommend this trip at all. Maybe during high season it's more interesting, has better cars and some entertainment for the kids.

What's not to love a train ride along part of the moose river in the Scenic Adirondacks with some New York Central vintage restored passenger cars.Stopping along the way to pickup some kayakers and kayaks for the return trip to the train station.Great family fun good value the fall trips are the best but they also have some activity trains.A Must ride in the Adirondacks you will not be disappointed.

I appreciate that this rail line is run primarily by volunteers dedicated to keeping a small rail line alive. The conductor and engineer were knowledgeable and friendly and we enjoyed the train trip, but the "brunch".....Where to start? Brunch to me means a mix of breakfast and lunch foods, maybe some fresh fruit. This one included four food items; powdered scrambled eggs, some kind of dried up potatoes, pancakes and sausage. Our wee one wanted some bacon and they did bring us some....for $2.00 extra. The ancient rug looked like some kind of science experiment as a breeding ground for bacteria. The train ride was fun and worth the price; the "brunch" was just plain gross.

We went on the Thendara - Otter Lake loop. This loop is non-stop, which is fine because there is access to food/drinks/bathrooms on the train. We wanted to go on the Thendara - Big Moose loop, but the tracks are being worked on this year - that loop has a stopover for lunch or brunch and would have been more fun. Plus, it was pouring rain, and freezing, it would have been much nicer if it had been a lovely sunny day.

We had not been on a train for many years and went on the ride with friends. We were all thrilled with the experience of a train ride through the mountainous areas of New York. While not a lengthy trip, it was enough to make us want to try for a longer trip in the future.

In looking for things to do on our trip, we found the Adirondack Scenic Railroad. We took a Saturday 3pm trip and found it to be a great time and day. The train ride lasts a little over an hour, but goes by very quickly once you're on. We didn't see too much....trees and rivers....but the train ride experience was worth it. You have the option to sit on the train inside or go to the open-air train in the back. We opted to sit inside on the way down the mountain and stood on the open-air train on the way back up the mountain. Both were enjoyable....but the open-air train gave way to better scenic pictures. The only minor drawback was the smell inside the train. You could tell it was on the older side....smelled a bit musty. If you're sensitive to smells, the open-air train is probably your best choice for the scenic ride. We had a pretty good time, so we would recommend it.

We went on a rail/boat cruise from Thendara to Big Moose. This is a new route just opened 6 weeks ago. The track was in good condition, the cars were clean. We picked up a couple of bikers in Thendara who were going up to Carter and biking back. The conductor was informative and pleasant. We were permitted to stand in the boxcar with the open air windows, made for great picture taking as well. Some people at the brunch were at the end of the line and there food wasn't warm ( a sterno could solve that problem.) I am hoping that the route up to Lake Placid will be finished soon. This is a great asset to the Adirondack Park System.
