New rail excursions brought to you by Finger Lakes Rail Experience beginning July 4th!


Finger Lakes Railway (FGLK) is pleased to announce the resumption of seasonal tourist rail excursions throughout its six-county regional service area. Scheduled weekend operations over different segments of a 167-mile cluster of scenic lines will begin on July 4, employing a distinctive five-car trainset of restored classic 1940s-era equipment formerly used on the New York Central System’s streamlined “20th Century Limited.”

The new “FLX Rail Experience” train will include deluxe coach, premium and first-class accommodations to facilitate family outings, brunch dining, wine tastings, and evening relaxation. Round trips range in length from one to two-and-a-half hours, variously departing from Canandaigua, Geneva and Seneca Falls, as shown on the weekend schedule below. Weekday opportunities to charter a train for large-group occasions can also be arranged to avoid interference with regular freight operations.

To sharpen focus on promoting tourism and supporting local businesses, FGLK will act as host railroad for excursion service conducted by the professional organization operating highly successful tourist rail operations across the U.S. Details of the various New York service offerings can be found on their website Finger Lakes Rail Experience. Tickets will go on sale June 6.
