North Conway-Crawford Depot-Fabyan Station
11:00AM departures on Tues, Wed, Thurs & Sat

ON THE NOTCH TRAIN, you'll enjoy some of the finest natural scenery in the East as you travel through spectacular Crawford Notch - past sheer bluffs, steep ravines, cascading brooks and streams, panoramic mountain vistas, and across the famed Frankenstein Trestle and Willey Brook Bridge - enroute to Crawford Depot or Fabyan Station. Live commentary covers history and folklore of the railroad and area, as well as points of interest.

Included in the excursion is an hour's layover at Crawford Station, across from Saco Lake (a small pond from which the the mighty Saco River originates), and adjacent to the AMC's Highland Center. Passengers are encouraged to get off the train, stretch their legs, and explore their beautiful surroundings.

Coach seating and climate controlled First Class seating are available aboard the Notch Train. First Class options are the CP Reed or the Dome Car, Dorthea Mae, both originally built in the mid-fifties for transcontinental service in Canada and the United States respectively. There are a total of 48 seats in the Dome Car: 24 in the Lower Dome, which is First Class seating, and 24 in the Dome itself, which is Premium seating. Our Open Coach is temporarily out of service.

Crawford Depot

The onboard snack bar offers a limited selection of individually priced sandwiches, snacks, and beverages for purchase. Box Lunches are available if pre-ordered with your reservation.
