点评:How delightful! We reserved a table on the Wine and Cheese excursion in post-Christmas December 2024. We had a delightful trip. The train cars are beautifully restored, and sparkling clean. Each table was decorated with a potted faux poinsettia. The ceiling was strung with holiday garland. The trip was about 90 minutes in total, and traveled through the farmland and woods of Salem County, NJ. We saw farm animals (goats, cows) as well as wildlife (bald eagles). The train staff (conductors and ticket people) were so helpful and kind. We brought our own beverages, although there were soft drinks and snacks available for purchase. As it was a wine (BYO or purchase) and cheese excursion, we were provided a lovely charcuterie board with grapes, cheese, crackers, and cured meats. At the end of the line is a Y switch (I’m sure I’ve used the wrong term) that allows the engine to move to the other end of the train to pull us back to the station. The announcement said this was unique, or unusual feature, so I made a point to look it up when I returned home.
We will happily go back again for a trip in fall (foliage), or spring (green sprouts).
Recommended for adults or children. Note that there are 4 or 5 steps to get into the train car from the platform. There are hand rails, a conductor, and a box to step up on, but someone truly mobility challenged would have difficulty with access.
翻译:多么令人愉快!我们在 2024 年 12 月圣诞节后的葡萄酒和奶酪之旅中预订了一张桌子。我们度过了愉快的旅程。火车车厢经过精心修复,一尘不染。每张桌子上都装饰着盆栽仿制一品红。天花板上挂着节日花环。整个旅程大约 90 分钟,穿过新泽西州塞勒姆县的农田和树林。我们看到了农场动物(山羊、奶牛)以及野生动物(白头鹰)。火车工作人员(乘务员和售票员)非常乐于助人和友善。我们带了自己的饮料,虽然有软饮料和小吃可供购买。由于这是一次葡萄酒(自带或购买)和奶酪之旅,我们得到了一份美味的熟食拼盘,上面有葡萄、奶酪、饼干和腌肉。线路末端有一个 Y 型开关(我确定我用错了术语),它可以让火车头移动到火车的另一端,把我们拉回车站。广播说这是一个独特的或不寻常的功能,所以我回家后特意查了一下。
我们很乐意在秋天(落叶)或春天(绿芽)再次回去旅行。
推荐成人或儿童。请注意,从站台进入火车车厢需要爬 4 或 5 个台阶。有扶手、乘务员和一个可以踩上去的箱子,但真正行动不便的人很难进入。
