点评:I’ve been on a lot of scenic trains, you could check out my reviews, and this one explain explained that it would be scenic, however, if you think that a junk yard, a rock quarry, industrial garbage, a yard field of rusty, septic tanks, a scrapyard and derelict structures is scenic then this train is for you.
I guess it’s a good train for kids because they might not know what they’re looking at outside the window. But this train certainly did not have scenic meadows, scenic tree scapes, scenic mountains. In two spots, there was a creek, which was the only scenic you will ever get on this train. I found myself anxious to get off the train. The train goes from Hollidaysburg to Martinsburg and the engine, detached at the end of the line and reattaches at the beginning of the train and takes you back the same way. If you could fall asleep on the train, then that would probably be your best bet.
The cost was prohibitive for a box to lunch for two people. When you arrived at the train depot, I will say it was very quaint, there were indoor restrooms available. You go into the gift shop/ticket counter and pick up your reservation tickets. You go to another little building and pick up your boxed lunch with a water bottle, the box lunched included a sandwich of your choice that you pick on the Internet of like three choices, famous Amos cookies and lays potato chips along. The box with lunch inside was actually was actually in a souvenir Everett railroad mini collapsible soft cooler, which was one of the only exciting things about the trip. You can also ride the train without purchasing lunch.
There is no narration over the loudspeaker about the scenery because what could they say, check out this huge junkyard isn’t it exciting.
Save your money.
翻译:我坐过很多观光列车,你可以看看我的评论。这趟列车也声称沿途风景优美,但如果你觉得垃圾场、采石场、工业垃圾、锈迹斑斑的化粪池、废品堆和废弃建筑都算风景的话,那这趟列车或许适合你。
我想这趟列车可能适合带孩子乘坐,因为他们可能还不认识窗外的风景。但这趟列车绝对没有风景如画的草地、树林或山脉。沿途只有两处小溪,这大概是这趟列车上唯一能看到的风景了。我迫不及待地想下车。这趟列车从霍利斯堡开往马丁斯堡,机车会在终点站脱钩,然后在起点站重新连接,原路返回。如果你能在火车上睡着,那这或许是最佳选择。
两个人的盒饭价格高得离谱。到达火车站后,你会发现这里非常古朴雅致,而且还有室内洗手间。你先去礼品店/售票处领取预订的车票。然后去另一栋小楼领取你的盒装午餐和一瓶水。盒装午餐里包含一个三明治(你可以从网上选择,大概有三种口味),还有著名的阿莫斯饼干和乐事薯片。装午餐的盒子竟然是用埃弗雷特铁路的迷你折叠软式保温箱做的,这算是这次旅行中为数不多的亮点之一了。当然,你也可以选择不买午餐就乘车。
车厢里没有广播介绍沿途风景,因为他们还能说什么呢?“看看这个巨大的废品场,是不是很刺激?”
省下你的钱吧。
