Rating : 4 star. WORTH THE TRIP , 27-Aug-2003
Reviewer: Jesse Corbett from WY USA
Been on several steam tourist railroad and this one definately is a must ride. Very well maintained track, equipment, and facilities. Extremely friendly staff. Price is reasonable. Wish the ride was longer. Only issue is no rest rooms in cars but ride is only about 45 minutes each way. Be there early! Engines burn oil so no cinders to deal with.


Rating : 4 star. NOSTALGIA IN STEAM , 29-Aug-2003
Reviewer: WENDY COLES from ENGLAND
IT WAS EARLY AUGUST WHEN THE FOUR OF US FROM ENGLAND TOOK THE TRAIN IN HILL CITY. IT WAS A LOVELY HOT DAY AND THE TRAIN WAS ALMOST FULL. WE STEAMED AWAY OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND THROUGH THE PRETTY MEADOWS WITH A CONSTANT COMMENTARY FROM THE STAFF ON BOARD. THE SCENERY IS OUTSTANDING AND AS WE WERE IN AN ORIGINAL CARRIAGE IT WAS VERY AUTHENTIC. LOTS OF PHOTOS AND VIDEO FOOTAGE WERE TAKEN SO THAT WE CAN RE-LIVE THE EXPERIENCE NOW WE ARE HOME. THE ENGINE SHEDS WERE MOST INTERESTING WITH RENOVATION WORK TAKING PLACE ON A LOVELY CARRIAGE AND MANY ENGINES. A NICE SNACK WAS AVAILABLE AT THE HALF WAY STOP AND AN ENJOYABLE RIDE BACK TO HILL CITY ENDED A VERY SCENIC TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE.
