Scenic Trains
Let a historic train take you through the mountains and back in time.
Experiencing Nature’s Mountain Playground by way of a steam-driven locomotive is one of the most unforgettable memories you can make in Pocahontas County. Whether you’re young or old, traveling solo or with the whole family, a train ride here offers a once-in-a-lifetime chance to take in the rolling mountains and deep valleys of West Virginia from a unique, nostalgic vantage point.
Train Excursions in Pocahontas County
Mountain Rail Adventures operates three distinct excursions that highlight the region’s scenic beauty and railroad legacy. Take the 1.5-hour Whittaker Station route for a shorter ride through the mountains. Climb to one of West Virginia’s highest peaks on the 4-hour Bald Knob excursion. Or enjoy a full-day experience aboard the 6-hour Greenbrier Express, a round-trip journey along the Greenbrier River from Cass to Durbin. Boxed lunches are provided, making it easy to relax and enjoy the ride.
Afterward, stick around for a guided Cass Historical Town Tour, or book a stay in a restored Cass Company House to round out your historic experience. If you opt for the Greenbrier Express, take time to explore the charming town of Durbin. A self-guided historical walking tour and local public art displays offer a great way to complete your visit and connect with the region’s creative and cultural roots.
