Event: Ride a Vintage Train to Visit the Easter Bunny

March 28-29 and April 3-4

March 24, 2015

All Aboard! The Easter Bunny will once again pay a visit to the Danbury Railway Museum and you can take a ride in a vintage train through the historic rail yard to visit him.   This popular annual family event will take place on Saturday & Sunday, March 28 & 29, and Friday & Saturday, April 3 & 4.  Museum hours are 10:00-4:00 on Friday and Saturday; noon-4:00 on Sunday.  Trains leave every 30 minutes from 12:30 to 3:30.  Admission is $10.00 (age 2 and over); each child will receive a small gift from the Bunny.  Reservations are suggested and may be made by visiting the museum’s Web site.

The short train ride in a fully-restored 1953 New Haven RR Rail Diesel Car (Budd RDC), will take visitors past the fully operational turntable, over 70 vintage railroad cars and locomotives, and many unique pieces of railroad history, including a Boston & Maine steam locomotive built in 1907.  The train ride will stop at the Easter Bunny’s special railroad car. The museum’s beautifully restored circa-1910 Railway Post Office (RPO) car will also be open.  Of course, the exhibits inside the restored 1903 Danbury station will be open, along with a coloring station, temporary tattoos, Thomas® play table, and the operating model train layouts.  A fully-stocked gift shop will also be open.
