The Best way to see the Beauty of Spring!
Join us for a historic train ride and bear witness to the vibrant awakening of mother nature along the scenic Oregon Coast. This excursion departs from Rockaway Beach for a 45-minute trip to Wheeler and a 45 minute return trip, traveling along the shores of the Pacific Ocean before turning into the coastal forests as the route travels along the breathtaking Nehalem Bay and its estuaries. An onboard narrative will provide passengers with an immersive step back in time, complete with beautiful views and educational information all while traveling at a leisurely pace to your destination.
Upon arrival at Wheeler, passengers will have a 45-minute layover in the quaint town with views of the mighty Nehalem River and towering mountains. Shopping and food options are available in Wheeler during the layover (subject to the hours of the businesses in Wheeler).
Motive power will vary weekend by weekend. Below is a list of the days where our historic McCloud River Railroad #25 steam locomotive will be pulling the train along with the days that our vintage diesel locomotives will pull the train. Note that due to the historic nature of the equipment, motive power is subject to change with or without notice.

Caboose Rentals:
This exclusive experience aboard the Spring Splendor Excursion allows you and your party to rent our entire caboose! The caboose comfortably holds a maximum of 10 people. The price of the charter includes as many people as you wish to bring up to 10 people. A caboose rental gives your group their own private space where you can enjoy the scenic coastal views and the on board narration without the hustle and bustle of other passengers walking through the car.
Note: The Caboose for Caboose Rentals is not ADA accessible and does not have a restroom. Caboose Rentals may not be booked less than 24 hours ahead of the departure time. The caboose is isolated from the rest of the train, so Caboose Rental groups will not have access to the rest of the train while moving.
Locomotive Cab Rides
Get up close and personal with the historic steam locomotive or vintage diesel locomotive pulling the train by taking a ride in the locomotive cab with the engine crew! This is an unparalleled view that shows what it takes to operate the historic locomotives that pull our excursion trains!
