With a 7″ blanket of new-fallen snow predicted on Friday, the conditions will be perfect on Saturday for some steamy fun in the snow.

Join us for one of these three adventures:

Winter Steam Adventure

Departing at 12 noon and 3pm, we’ll take our train through the ‘Currier & Ives’-like scenery of evergreen forests and farms to our station at Top of the Mountain. Along the way we’ll also make a stop at Alna Center for an opportunity to photograph the train in motion. And, in true WW&F fashion, we’ll be stopping en-route to deliver freight on the 12pm trip. Come experience real winter railroading in Maine. Photography is welcome (and encouraged!)

Winter Caboose Adventure

Bring your family (or small group) for a special experience on the WW&F Railway! Your group (of up to 15 people) gets exclusive access to the “little red caboose” on the WW&F Railway for a five-mile 50-minute excursion through ‘Currier & Ives’-like scenery of evergreen forests and farms to our station at Top of Mountain. The train will travel over the river and through the (hopefully) snow-covered woods for good, old-fashioned fun. And yes, you can ride “up top” in the cupola (although adults will need to watch their heads!)

Ski and Snowshoe Train

Join us for a wintertime adventure aboard the WW&F Railway. Your trip will take you from Sheepscot station through ‘Currier & Ives’-like scenery of evergreen forests and farms to Alna Center Station for access to our local network of ski and snowshoe trails. After your ski or snowshoe, warm up by the coal stove at the station, then board the 2:10 train to return to Sheepscot station. The trails around Alna Center are maintained by the Alna Snowmobile Club. Please be cautious as they are multi-use trails.

Advance tickets for these adventures are recommended, as seating will be very limited.

Book your Steamy Winter Adventure!

 

Note that our trains are not heated – so please dress accordingly as you would for an outdoor event.
