About Conway Scenic Railroad

Conway Scenic Railroad has run heritage trains out of North Conway's 1874 Victorian station since 1974. The Valley Train is a one-hour, 11-mile round trip on the old Boston and Maine Conway Branch, planned with children and first-time riders in mind. The Mountaineer is the long run, four hours or more through Crawford Notch on the former Maine Central Mountain Division. You ride in restored vintage cars, and seasonal Halloween and Santa trains fill out the calendar.
