Thunder Mountain Line

About me:

The Thunder Mountain Line takes you back in time when folks moved at a slower pace. Your train ride offers amazing scenery as it winds around a narrow canyon along the beautiful Payette River. Depending on your route, the train ride will venture through sagebrush covered hill sides, pristine national forests, mountain meadows and range lands. As you roll out of the station you will travel along the same mountain trails as the settlers did in the early part of the century. The railroad was completed in 1914 to serve the mining and timber industry. You can enjoy this fresh mountain air and scenery on our open air cars while you relive a piece of Idaho railroad history.
