Riverside and Great Northern Railway
Riverside and Great Northern Railway, Heritage miniature railway in Wisconsin Dells, United States.
The Riverside and Great Northern Railway operates a 15-inch gauge track system through Wisconsin River canyons, extending over three miles of scenic terrain.
Founded in Janesville, the railway relocated to Wisconsin Dells in 1952, utilizing the former La Crosse and Milwaukee Railroad right-of-way for its operations.
The railway maintains traditional locomotive building techniques, having produced 15 engines and 30 pieces of rolling stock that serve multiple zoos across America.
Visitors can experience train rides from May through October, with special Santa Train events occurring during the first days of December.
The preservation society acquired steam locomotive number 82 through an exchange with Milwaukee County Zoo, returning it to full operational status.
