V&T Railway offers spring railbike rides beginning this Saturday
V&T Railway announced Tuesday that its railbike rides, in partnership with Freedom Rail, return beginning this Saturday, April 17.
Pedal your way through history aboard a Freedom Railbike along the historic Virginia & Truckee train route. Your journey takes you into beautiful Carson River Canyon along an exciting, curved, and gradual 2 percent grade track system to the historic Eureka Mill rest area.
Our motor-assisted, pedal railbikes provide a comfortable trip out of the canyon, across the V&T Railway highway bridge to an additional historic site, the Halfway House Stage Stop. Here you will enjoy a water and a complimentary snack. This one of a kind tour is 90 minutes and is for all ages. Passengers must be able to pedal for an extended time period.
The April schedule is Wednesday through Sundays. Ride Times: 10:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m., 2:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m.
