We took my elderly mother-in-law on the train ride. They had a small lift to help her onto the train with her walker. She talked about riding trains like that when she was young. She had a great time. This is not only for kids. Everyone can enjoy this trip to the past. More

It's been awhile since our visit but time hasn't dulled our interest and appreciation of it. We won a dinner train ticket once and enjoyed an evening ride alone as a couple and even got a souvenir wine glass from the railway to take home. The hosts are wonderful and are all volunteer lead and run. It's a great scenic... More

If you like trains, especially your kids, this is a good day trip from city. Short trip from city, train rides are usually short. They even have different activities for the seasons. More

I love trains, and riding on old trains just takes me back in time. This is a fun outing to take your kids or grandkids on. More

We took the 90 minute train ride. Comfortable seats, entertaining staff, and beautiful scenery. Kids had a fantastic time and we found the ride very relaxing. They have a nice little snack car where you can pick up a beverage and treat for the journey. Looking forward to trying one of their themed rides next. More

They have two rides, one to Dresser, Wisconsin. $12.00 per adult. The other ride which is longer, it is about 45 minutes one way goes to Marine on the St.... More

Fun family attraction offered by the Osceola and St Croix Valley Railway. Board the train in Osceola and debark in Dresser for fall fun. Limited parking at the Osceola station but free parking and shuttle offered from the High School. Seats were a bit limited and some people had to stand on the bus. While waiting for the train to...

This is a beautiful ride in the fall if you take the trip that goes from Osceola to Marine on St. Croix. A shorter trip goes between Osceola and Dresser. If you have little kids, the shorter ride might be enough. One of the older gentlemen volunteers can give you a great history lesson if you care to listen. I... More
