Essex Steam Train

4.2/5 (128 reviews)
Travel back in time aboard the Essex Steam Train's 1920s Pullman coaches through the Connecticut River Valley. This journey combines vintage rail travel with a scenic riverboat cruise.
See properties
This is a great museum and Essex is an awesome little town to visit. With a salty New England charm this patriotic community oozes red white and blue. Grab some ice cream and walk down to the dock at the museum and feed the ducks... chances are someone will be by with a golden lab or some other well bred dog to frolic in the water.
