My husband, Sister, and I took the Potomac Eagle All Day Petersburg trip on June 27, 2026. For my…read morehusband and myself, this was our second "Ride to the End of the Line" and although our first trip was great, this one exceeded any expectations we had; it was a wonderful all-around experience. There are three reasons this Potomac Eagle experience is worth repeating, and why the value is exceptional: 1. First and Foremost: The Potomac Railroad Employees From first contact to disembarking upon return to Wapacomo Station the employees made us feel welcome and valued. Although all of the employees were great, three young men stood out among their peers...Lucas, Carlos and Kalib made our trip a truly memorable experience. Immediately upon boarding, they offered us coffee or tea and throughout the day, they not only checked-in to see how we were doing, they stopped by and talked to us. I watched them treat other guests in our car the same. When we learned these young men were working their first jobs, we were amazed; they truly epitomized superior customer service. In today's world, I rarely see such outstanding care and service. Potomac Eagle is doing something right; other service providers could learn from the Potomac Eagle version of excellence. 2. Second: Superior Food throughout the trip Since we were on the all day trip, our reservation included breakfast and lunch appetizers with a small treat before we disembarked at Petersburg. Upon reboarding, Lucas and Carlos immediately welcomed us back with coffee and Arnold Palmer (lemonade-sweet tea) drinks. They kept our cups and glasses full for the entire return trip. The true value from our trip, however, was our Superior Dining experience. Chef William prepared a four-star, four-course dinner (Superior Dining class) that will bring me back later this summer for another excursion. We had beef tenderloin and Chilean Sea Bass w/Lemon for our main courses with appetizers, salads, and desserts. I felt like I gained 3 pounds from the outstanding dinner alone!! 3. Third but not least important: The Trough Canyon Experience Approximately mid-way to Petersburg, the train stops to allow passengers into their open-air gondola car for a 45-minute unobstructed view. While the train goes through the Trough Canyon, passengers see eagles soaring, dear foraging, and other natural wonders. The trip offers an opportunity only available via the Potomac Eagle...driving a car wouldn't be the same. For all the great things I can say about the Potomac Eagle experience, I would be remiss if I didn't mention the opportunities and people in Petersburg. The trip offers an additional excursion to Smoke Hole Caverns. For those who do not go to Smoke Hole, there are small vintage shops, museums, restaurants, and/or a chance to sit back, relax and to just be in the moment. It's a day away from the normal grind...Ride the Potomac Eagle to the End of the Line. Take a step back in time and enjoy!

What we liked, we loved: The long lines moved quickly due to tickets sales being well organized…read more The day before our trip, we received an email reminding us of directions and what to expect. This kept me from having to dig through old emails looking for our initial reservations that I had made months earlier. The staff were incredibly attentive to my 86-year-old mother. They offered us priority seating allowing us to board the train early without me asking. They seemed especially aware of the needs of their older riders. The scenery was beautiful for the most part--and we did see bald eagles! What we didn't like, we REALLY didn't like: The windows in our car really needed cleaning. When you are there for the view, you really need clean windows! Overall, the entire car could have used some serious sprucing up. The paint on the ceiling was peeling, and the PA system didn't work well. What we could hear of the narration sounded interesting, but the faulty PA system kept fading in and out. At the end of our ride, we were told the gift shop would be open--it wasn't. And finally, West Virginians--you have a naturally gorgeous state and everyone we have encountered here has been an absolute delight. Please, show some pride! As I said, the scenery from the train was beautiful FOR THE MOST PART. We had to look past a lot of unkempt homes, junky yards, and abandoned farm equipment. I saw what looked like a crumpled, plastic kiddie pool in the woods next to the tracks and a boat trailer that had been dumped in the river. I was told if we came back for a winter ride, we would see more eagles--maybe so, but with the leaves off the trees, we'd probably see more trash, too.

I flew on by realizing it would be painful trying to get there when I was on the same side as it was on my way to Shenandoah. On my way back, I managed to figure out what this place was. It was an old 5 story stacked stone structure built in 1742 that had survived several wars and milled food through all of them. in 1998, it was victimized by arson. The roof is gone, and the building has remanence from the fire. Currently, the mill is blocked off from being accessed. According to their website, they are making updates to the road. I accessed it by the railroad that runs behind the building, but as mentioned, the fence does prevent from access. It was really neat to see and I really wish it wasn't blocked off so I could get closer. It's definitely worth a stop if you're in Broad Run and into history.
