Fall Foliage

Enjoy the beauty of fall in southern York County as we follow the original Northern Central Railroad, a mainline in operation since 1838, through the scenic Heritage Rail Trail County Park. Choose a ride to Glen Rock (1 hour), Hanover Junction (2 1/2 hours), or Howard Tunnel (3 1/2 hours). Your conductor and brakeman will tell you about the history and growth of the towns and villages you pass along the way.

The NCR’s coach cars, echoing the elegance of the 1860s, stand as authentic replicas from the Civil War Era. Travelers may select from four enchanting options: D. Reed Anderson, Abraham Lincoln, New Freedom, or South Branch. While air conditioning is absent, the windows invite a delightful breeze on sunlit days. In the chill of winter, warmth emanates from coal stoves, creating a cozy haven. Moreover, passengers can rearrange their seats to face one another in groups of four or to gaze in different directions. Embark on a journey that transports you back in time, enveloping you in the nostalgia of a historic train ride.

Choose between two Mid-Century style coach cars: the Pacific Trail or the Overland Trail – The Trail Sisters. These coach cars embody the golden era of rail travel. The Overland Coach Car boasts a charming half-circle art deco bar, while the Pacific Car offers luxurious Pullman-style first-class accommodations. Experience the elegance of first-class travel with personal touches inspired by LIFE Magazine and more!
