Hudson River Rail Excursions
Event Details
Your day out on the rails begins at Pennsylvania Station’s Moynihan Train Hall, where you will have unique access to Amtrak’s brand new “Metropolitan Lounge”. From there, you will step back in time as you step aboard one of our two historic cars—the Hickory Creek and Tavern-Lounge No. 43. On the journey between New York and Albany, lunch and drinks will be served while you enjoy the one-of-a-kind view of the passing Hudson River. After an intermission at Albany-Rensselaer, our train will skate along the Hudson with the setting sun. Our historic rail cars, traveling on the tail end of Amtrak’s Empire Service, will traverse the very tracks that the 20th Century Limited did from 1902 to 1967.
