Riverside & Great Northern Railway

The Riverside & Great Northern Railway in Wisconsin Dells operates a 15-inch narrow-gauge steam railroad through the beautiful riverside scenery of the Wisconsin River valley, in the heart of one of Wisconsin’s most popular vacation regions. The miniature steam trains — genuine steam-powered locomotives scaled down to 15-inch gauge — wind through a mile of forested track alongside the Wisconsin River, offering a charming experience for families and railroad enthusiasts alike. Wisconsin Dells is known as the ‘Waterpark Capital of the World,’ and the R&GN adds a timeless, nostalgic attraction to the area’s mix of amusements. The surrounding river scenery of sandstone bluffs and wooded banks provides a peaceful contrast to the resort town’s busier attractions.
