点评:Wow, what a fun excursion and right here in Wisconsin. My wife and I booked this trip to celebrate our 52nd wedding anniversary with a bed and breakfast train ride. What a Great decision! First of all we walked into the station and were met by a courteous young man by the name of Alexander “Alex”. Extremely knowledgeable about the companies history and visibly excited to share that passion my wife and I were amazed to find Alex was only a freshman in high school and the owner’s son. Checking in with Alex we met Mardell, Alex’s mom, and had a great conversation.
Time to board the train. We were directed to our state room which was extremely comfortable. All the amenities. Queen bed, full bathroom with walk in shower etc.
Dinner was next, but first down to the club car for a cocktail, appetizer and conversation amongst the guests. Now the transition to the dining car. Linen covered tables and a fabulous dinner with all the trimmings ( you pre select you menu item when you book the trip)
Everything was absolutely phenomenal! The train rolls along for about 2 1/2 hours while you enjoy the experience while seeing the country side. Back to the station to park for the evening and relax in your state room or go to the club car for other entertainment card games etc.
after a great nights sleep (bed very comfy) we were greeted by a breakfast that was really delicious too! The meal menu is the same as served on trains in the past.
At the conclusion of our experience I was invited by Alex to a foot tour of the train yard including a close up look at the restoration of the “Mark Twain Zephyr” train. Oh my goodness, would love to ride this train!
The history of train travel is preserved in this business by the love of trains by this family. From Alex’s Grampa to his Dad, Greg and Mom, Mardell. Glad I saw the advertisement for this adventure and I look forward to a Pizza train ride in the future with my three granddaughters, thanks to the Vicelands.

翻译:哇,真是一次有趣的旅行,就在威斯康星州!我和妻子预订了这次旅行,庆祝我们结婚52周年,并享受了一次含早餐的火车之旅。真是个很棒的决定!首先,我们走进车站,一位彬彬有礼的年轻人迎接了我们,他叫亚历山大“亚历克斯”。他对公司的历史了如指掌,显然很想分享这份热情。我和妻子惊讶地发现亚历克斯只是个高一学生,而且是老板的儿子。在和亚历克斯办理入住手续时,我们遇到了亚历克斯的母亲马德尔,我们聊得很开心。
登车时间到了。我们被带到了我们的特等舱,那里非常舒适。所有设施一应俱全:大床、带步入式淋浴间的全功能卫生间等等。
接下来是晚餐,但首先要去俱乐部车厢喝杯鸡尾酒、吃点开胃菜,并与客人聊天。现在我们去餐车。餐桌上铺着亚麻布,我们享用了丰盛的晚餐(预订行程时可以预先选择菜单)。
一切都非常棒!火车缓缓前行约两个半小时,您可以一边欣赏乡村风光,一边享受旅程。晚上回到车站停车,在包厢里放松身心,或者去俱乐部车厢玩玩其他娱乐性的纸牌游戏等等。
一夜好眠(床很舒服)后,我们享用了一顿美味的早餐!菜单和过去的火车一样。
体验结束后,Alex邀请我徒步参观了火车站,还近距离观看了“马克·吐温·西风号”列车的修复。我的天哪,真想坐上这趟火车!
这家人对火车的热爱,让火车旅行的历史得以传承。从Alex的爷爷到他的父亲Greg,再到母亲Mardell,无不体现着这一点。很高兴看到这次旅行的广告,我期待着将来能和我的三个孙女一起乘坐披萨火车,感谢Vicelands。
