Arcadia Caboose Rides

Climb aboard a beautifully restored 1956 Monon caboose for a 30-minute journey through the countryside. Your family will experience the authentic sights and sounds of classic rail travel—the rumble of the car beneath you, the whistle of the train horn, and that iconic clickety-clack rhythm of the rails. It's a wonderful way to connect with transportation history and imagine what travel was like for railroaders generations ago. Before or after your ride, arrive with time to spare and explore the historic Arcadia Depot. A tour of the depot itself adds another layer to the experience, giving kids and adults alike a fuller picture of what train travel meant to communities. This is a perfect outing for families who love trains, history, or simply want a unique seasonal activity that sparks imagination.
