This attraction could have been so much more if management would only clean and touch up the passenger /observation cars. more on Yahoo! Travel

If you like spending alot of money to see trees, then by all means go on this....if not...then good for you! The train stunk....the bathroom was discusting, and all you could see were trees! It advertises that its a round trip...when ... more on Yahoo! Travel

I enjoyed the train ride very much!! Our young son thought he was riding on Thomas the tank engine... Half way through the conductor came by and ask if we had a camera and he took a family picture of us.. that was very thoughtful... ... more on Yahoo! Travel

wonderful trip for the family, everyone enjoyed it. They welcomed children. more on Yahoo! Travel

The Branson Scenic(?) Railway was a nice experience as far as the train ride goes. The scenic part was a joke. There was no scenery except for trees (now this was on the Northern Route...no choice on which way the train goes, the ... more on Yahoo! Travel

This train is quite an experience. Lots of sights to see. Good trip. Nice people. If you like trains,or just seeing some pretty country--this is for you. We've gone several times and will go again. We would recommend this to any age. ... more on Yahoo! Travel

The ride was relaxing and very beautiful. Fall is such the right time for this ride. The leaves are changing colors and such a great photo opp. If your expecting something exicting. Its not something ... more on TripAdvisor

It was magical! My son LOVED IT! What a great memory we made! more on TripAdvisor

As excursion trains go, this one is okay- not great - not bad-just overpriced. It goes thru a bad part of town and the countryside is just ho-hum. No unique features. The observation ... more on TripAdvisor

Took our nine year old on the Polar Express. Great for the kids. The call staff when booking reservations over the phone was pretty rude! Onsite staff was much more friendly. Kids ... more on TripAdvisor

I took my seven year old son on this ride & we loved it. We both really enjoyed ourselves & just might do it again next year. They read the polar express story, serve you a cookie & cup of hot chocola ... more on TripAdvisor

This was the most boring thing I had done in Branson. There are hardly any senic views what so ever. The other reviews where people say it stinks, there not lying. The seats are not in very good condition eighter. Most of the time ... more on Yahoo! Travel

My wife and I were disappointed with the scenery. You only see trees, and run down house and trailers. Plus it wasn't a round trip. You go 20 miles one way and stop on a very high bridge and return in the ... more on Yahoo! Travel

This is robbery...We were so excited to take our two children on there. But when we got there, they had to search us and our bags. We were not allowed to take any food or drinks on the train, unless it had their logo on it. That would ... more on Yahoo! Travel

Well, we were under the assumption that children under three were free, not so, 13 bucks, so we dropped about 50 bucks or so to go on the train. Took the northern route, the scenary is aweful, a junk pile that is embarrassing if you ... more on Yahoo! Travel

Like everything in Branson, this costs too much, but this is to be expected in a tourist town. However, the cost to value ratio was nonexistent!!! The attraction had one thing in abundance-boredom. The cost was not in relation to ... more on Yahoo! Travel
