The California redwoods, pristine coastline, and award winning vineyards are all a part of the landscape of what makes Mendocino County such an amazing place and home to this 131-year-old train.

Took our Grandson's on the Pudding Creek Express and they loved it. Just the right length of time for a 4 and 7 year old.

We made reservations online to ride the skin train into the Redwoods. The open car and the conductor's knowledge enhanced our ride as we enjoyed the beauty of the forest. The music and comedy were an added bonus. (Ask about the whales and the Englishmen) thank you for a lovely experience. The Rees family 🏰

Took my grandson and granddaughter-half the fun for me was watching their excitement and them enjoying the ride. Price was pretty steep for such a short ride, but when you're the only game in town you can pretty much charge whatever you want and people will still pay it. It's a part of our national history so it's important to keep it alive.

We recently went on the Skunk Train and it wasn't as I remembered from 10 years ago. Yes the trip was good, but last time we had a conductor who told us about the history of the area. This time there was nothing.
