The Verde Canyon Railway is not far away from Phoenix. Take a train trip through a beautiful canyon. You may see eagles nesting and, in the fall, the colorful foliage.
The railroad was originally built to support Arizona's richest copper mine, located in Jerome. Now visitors enjoy the Verde Canyon Railway excursions to enjoy a leisurely trip and view the natural surroundings. Along the way, you'll hear a bit about Arizona's mining history.
The Railroad offers a 4 hour, out and back, train excursion along the beautiful Verde River. They also offer numerous special events.
I recommend the first class cars with couch seating. It all adds to the relaxing experience.
