Durbin & Greenbrier Valley Railroad
What people are saying
Rode the New Tygart Flyer up to High Falls at Shavers Fork. We were in the parlor car and our host, tour guide and server was Beth, who was wonderful. Beth provided and served all the food and beverages with a kind and friendly smile. The trip took a couple hours to the top to see the falls. At the top of the end there is a 33° bend in the track the train could not travel over. In fact, according to tour guide Mary this is the sharpest RR curve east of the Sierra Nevada. We had absolutely wonderful weather, the leaves were changing and couldn’t have asked for a better day. The trip was really enjoyable, I highly recommend taking the tour. Free parking is available at the station. Parlor car cost is $110/person.
While camping at Five Rivers Campground in Parsons, WV, we planned a train ride and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. The only downside was the lack of a vegetarian option for lunch. We would still do it again packing our own lunch the next time. The staff was delightful. We cannot say enough good things about everyone hosting the train.
It was well worth the trip if you like riding steam engines trains. The people were very nice & informative. We had a great time on a 2 hour ride
Enjoyed riding the train up to the waterfall. Just over a 4 hr round-trip, with some time to admire the Falls. Would have been way better in an open air car, but overall a good trip
Amazing 4 hour trip. Everyone was so nice and I think if you ask the engineer or the conductor you can ride in the cab of the locomotive. Definitely worth doing👍👍
