One of the most entrancing ways to tour Connecticut is by train. The Railroad Museum of New England offers scenic rides on the Naugatuck Railroad showcasing our stunning scenery as you ride the rails. Kicking off its warm weather season is one of our favorite Spring train rides — the Easter Bunny Express! Treat yourself and the kids to a springtime adventure that the whole family will adore.
