GIVEAWAY, Thomas the Train is Coming to Delaware River Railroad!

Win a Family 4-pack of Tickets to see Thomas!

By Jessica Compton - Assistant to Macaroni Kid - Sussex July 31, 2020

This has been a different summer in many ways, and the Delaware River Railroad Excursions want to bring a smile to the face of your train-loving kids. Kids of all ages love trains, and they especially love Thomas the Train! Delaware River Railroad Excursions is excited to announce that Thomas the Train is coming on August 28, 29, and 30!

Day Out With Thomas is a family event that offers children and their grownups the opportunity to ride with classic storybook friend Thomas the Tank Engine. Parents, grandparents and siblings join their aspiring engineers in the fun. The Day Out With Thomas experience will engineer miles of smiles for the whole family and introduce a new generation to the timeless excitement of railroading. The train pulled by Thomas leaves every hour on the hour, 10 am to 5 pm. You may also ride the River Train along the scenic Delaware River to Carperntersville, New Jersey ( an hour and fifteen minute round trip). For an added adventure take the River Train to the Susquehanna Mine, learn the History and learn how to pan for Gem Stones that you can take home! The trips pulled by Thomas take you along the beautiful Delaware River to North Carpentersville New Jersey, a 25 minute ride. The River Train  follows the same route journeying further along the river to Edingers with a brief stop at the "Old Susquehanna" gem stone mine. At the mine you may get off, visit the mine and learn how to pan for gems. Each passenger receives a bag of mine tiling's , a brief history of the mine and use of the sluice to prospect for their very own gem stones they can bring home! They will also provide temporary tattoos, coloring pages, and a free Thomas giveaway in a take home bag, so that you may continue your Day Out with Thomas celebration in the safety of your own home! See more information and buy tickets at their website.
