点评:The most disappointing part of our vacation.
For a family of 3 (2 adults, 1 child) in the premium section (dome windows) it was $156.388
You are told to be there 30 minutes early, but when you arrive you have to wait for 20+ minutes in the gift shop. With a child this is not ideal. They could put some benches inside the ticket area or something…
It drives 5 miles down the road, stops for 10 minutes while they move the engine from one side pf the train to the other, then drive back to the station. The trip says it will be an hour and 20 minutes, it took 50 minutes.
The guide only points things out going one way, the way back is in silence. And if you sit on the wrong side of the train (most things are on the right side) you don’t get to see it on the way back. Our son even asked to lay down on the way back to the station because it was boring.
Overall we were really disappointed, later we heard another couple chatting at the hotel who was discussing an awesome train tour they did, apparently the Mt Washington COG railway is less expensive (would be $142 for us) and was really awesome.
Lesson learned….read the reviews first! - they also should change the same and cross out scenic...the photo here is the only view we got...and maybe a quick glimpse of the Saco. We luckily missed the waste treatment view....
翻译:这是我们假期中最令人失望的部分。
对于一个三口之家(2 名成人,1 名儿童)来说,高级舱(圆顶窗)的票价为 156,388 美元
他们说要提前 30 分钟到达,但到达后却要在礼品店等 20 多分钟。带着孩子,这可不是什么好主意。他们可以在售票区放一些长椅之类的东西……
火车沿着公路行驶 5 英里,停 10 分钟,让火车的引擎从火车的一侧移到另一侧,然后开回车站。行程说要一个小时 20 分钟,结果花了 50 分钟。
导游只指出了单程的路线,回程则一片寂静。如果你坐在火车的错误一侧(大多数东西都在右侧),回程时就看不到了。我们的儿子甚至在回车站的路上要求躺下,因为太无聊了。
总的来说,我们真的很失望,后来我们听到另一对夫妇在酒店聊天,他们正在讨论他们参加的一次很棒的火车之旅,显然华盛顿山 COG 铁路更便宜(对我们来说是 142 美元),而且真的很棒。
吸取教训……先阅读评论! - 他们也应该改变同样的做法,划掉风景……这里的照片是我们唯一看到的景色……也许可以快速瞥见萨科。幸运的是,我们错过了废物处理景观……
