CLIMB ABOARD FLORIDA HISTORY!
Featuring vintage passenger cars and Sugar Express steam locomotive no. 148, these trips will traverse local farmland on a spirited ride perfect for families and children.
Departing from 900 WC Owen Avenue, these one-hour trips will offer guests a ride aboard a vintage passenger train through the surrounding sugarcane fields! Tickets are $30.00 plus tax per person. Children 3 and under and not occupying a seat ride free.
No. 148 will be operating a six-chime steam whistle off sister locomotive No. 153, which is currently on display at the Gold Coast Railroad Museum. Steam locomotive No. 153’s voice has been silent for decades and has not been heard in the Clewiston region since the 1950s!
