A Ride on the Weiser Railroad (Greenfield Village) 5-8-21

Come along for a ride on the Weiser Railroad at Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. At 80 total acres, the village serves as a living museum and provides a unique glimpse into America's earlier years. The railroad runs in a loop around the perimeter of the grounds and is one of the park's main attractions. Three active steam locomotives call the railroad home. At the time of our visit, locomotive no. 1 'Edison' was hard at work pulling trainloads of visitors around the park. If you're ever in the area, the village and the train ride are definitely worth a visit.
