My Aunt mentioned this today during our visit, and it looks like a blast:
The Western Maryland Scenic Railroad round trip excursion is an exciting mix of mountain scenery and rich transportation history. It’s an entertaining and educational experience riders of all ages and interests with interpretive history and lively Main Street Districts at both ends of the trip!
