See the Delaware countryside on a heritage train
The Wilmington and Western Railroad is a "heritage railroad" that travels a 10-mile stretch of historic rail between Greenbank and Hockessin, Delaware. The railroad dates back to the 1860's and travels along a really beautiful little creek and wooded area. The trip takes you through historic and charming little rail depots, over bucolic ponds, and through the gorgeous green Delaware woods.
