Fall Train Rides to the Pumpkin Patch
- Special Fall train rides in October & November
- Two different Fall excursions to choose from!

All aboard! Fall is a relatively short season here in Huntsville, but one of our favorite ones because there’s so much to do! Definitely be sure to add the North Alabama Railroad Museum to your Fall Must List if you have a young train enthusiast. They offer two different train rides through the countryside, and if you act fast you can snag seats on both this year.
We did the fall colors ride. Fun for the kids and a cool history lesson. We’ll be back! – Christina B.
