Description
Take the scenic 'road' around the Cape and leave the driving to us! Travel back in time to a by-gone era as our commentator relives over 150 years of railroading on Cape Cod. Let the clickety-clack of the steel wheels whisk you away on a nostalgic two hour journey where you'll enjoy views accessible only by the railways.

Sand dunes, salt marshes, woodlands, and cranberry bogs line the rails to the banks of the Cape Cod Canal. Highlights include the Barnstable County Complex, Great Salt Marsh, The Sandwich Boardwalk, and the rich history of Cape Cod Canal. Make a whistle-stop in the historic village of Sandwich, Cape Cod's oldest town, with time to browse, dine, or visit one of its premier museums. Check the website for schedule information.
