In the last thirty years thousands of railroad lines have been abandoned, but thanks to railroad preservationists and enthusiasts many have been saved and transformed into nostalgic adventures and fun for everyone. Railroading is becoming one of the fastest growing hobbies and tourism specialties. All around the country crowds are turning out for special "themed" excursions like fall foliage tours, dinner trains, ghost hunting, and even a chance to operate your own "loco". By far, the most popular excursion is the dinner train - relax and relive the golden days of railroad dining with an elegant, full-service full-course dinner on a 1920s era car. Tourist railroading is a fun and economical way to spend the day, as well as a learning experience for anyone who appreciates early 20th century locomotive craftsmanship - from steam to electric.
