We took the Mothers Day train ride with another couple.
The staff was friendly and efficient. The food was very good and the service was professional.
Overall the trip was pleasant with the big exception of the air conditioning not functioning at all in the lower level of the Diamond class car. The temperature started at 76 degrees and went up to 84 degrees.
If it wasn't for Amy who would keep opening and closing the door to let some cool outside air in, the trip would have ended up being miserable.
The AC was the only reason for the 3 star review, if it had worked I would have given a 5 star
We have taken a few other trips with them and always had a 5 star experience.

We booked for 4 people to go on the Polar Express in 2021 and unfortunately had to reschedule due to having received a positive COVID test within a week of our scheduled trip. The customer service was extremely helpful in reassuring us that we could reschedule for next season. When we went to book we did not realize how quickly most of the trips were booked up and we could not secure a time slot that worked for our family. When we reached out to Customer service they reassured saying that the availability changes as cancellations occur. We asked for assistance in finding a day/time that worked for us and we were never outreached. Once the 'season' came and went, they explained that our ability to use our voucher expired after the year of purchase. 4 tickets is a decent enough amount of money in these challenging times. I wish they had found another option for us.

We are first-timers, enjoyed the Observation Car and the great staff service. The Cabin Fever rode on through the snowstorm and the patron chat and staff were great. All ages were involved and interested. We came up from Kingston- Rhinecliff on Amtrak so this was a great step back in time. We will be back to see the other seasons and the longer trips for sure!!! Thank you all, Don & Reg Carragher

Took my wife on a two hour valentines day themed dinner. Ride started in Utice and rode to Remsen then back. We are celebrating our 19th wedding anniversary with a renewal wedding. I re-proposed to her. She was very surprised. Food was excellent. It was a four course meal. I had sliced tenderloin of beef medallions with a peppercorn au poivre,mashed potatoes and roasted asparagus. My wife had chicken calvados boneless, skinless chicken breast braised with calvados,cider, mushrooms, carrots and apples served with mashed potatoes.

The Valentines train ride was absolutely amazing. It was elegant service, excellent cuisine, slowed time to the era of gracious travel. The only suggestion I have is to begin 1 hour earlier so sites outside can be seen.

We were in the caboose. We had no heat so we froze the whole ride. Our sound system also was on the fritz and was very hard to hear a lot of the stuff going on which wasn’t much. They read the book, a bakery dance by a pair of kids who didn’t look like they wanted to be there, a couple of small performances by Characters that you couldn’t hear. Santa was good but that was it. Our train cars windows were also the worst out of the whole train, I checked in our way off, the bottom half was plexiglass glass you couldn’t see out of. The kids kept opening them just to see out of them. And the top half was glass but very crappy viewing still. We could barely see anything outside. Our car had no trivia or anything else. Our kids were super bored. Cookies were delicious hot chocolate was room temperature. With our train being so cold I was really looking forward to something to warm us up. I feel we may have had a better experience in a different car but not by much. Will not ever do again, waste of money.

We rode the Polar Express (Cocoa Class), and had a great time! We especially loved the chefs performance in the aisle right before the cocoa and cookies were served, and meeting Santa and getting the beautiful bell -- just like in the book! The bell and souvenir cocoa mugs were very nice quality and will be treasured memories from the experience. I agree with some other reviewers who mentioned that the North Pole could have been a bit more spectacular/magical, and that the staff did not seem very experienced (some looked very young), but overall, we thought they still did a very nice job. The whole experience was really fun, and most importantly, the children in our group (ranging in age from 3-6 LOVED it!).
There was a nice build up of anticipation and consistency with the story on the way to the North Pole, and the fun dance party to the holiday tunes on the way back was a blast! We also really enjoyed the festive atmosphere of the Utica train station while waiting to board, and appreciated the activities to keep the children entertained while we waited (letters to Santa, facepainting, photo station, and the introduction to the ride).
After we bought our tickets, I got a bit nervous when I saw some of the poor reviews from the pandemic years, but we all really enjoyed the experience and would definitely do it again, especially with young kids!

The magic of the Polar Express has truly disappeared...me and my children were truly disappointed with our experience. First of all, the lack of activities for the kids was surprising, especially having to pay for them SEPARATE from our admission fee (which was already outrageous). Secondly, the train ride was just poorly decorated and not anything I was expecting, and I could barely hear the movie playing over the loudspeaker. Usually when they would play the movie they would have actors playing along with the movie, and for some reason they did not have that this time. To top it all off, the hot chocolate was COLD and DISGUSTING. Can't recommend anyone to take their kids to experience this.

We went for the Polar Express, it was a good time! I took my 5 and 9 year old and it had enough to keep them entertained. I agree with other reviewers that the staff did not seem super experienced, but they did a good job. There was singing and trivia to occupy the kids. It’s fun if you make it fun. The theming was very consistent, even the hot chocolate cups had the Polar Express logo. They also had dancers in the aisle dancing to the song from the movie when the hot chocolate was going to come out. The hot chocolate was not super warm but I feel like that is intentional, you don’t want the kids spilling it and burning themselves. The sugar cookies were huge and made with real ingredients. My 5 year old was thrilled with Santa coming around and he stopped for pictures with every kid, which was nice. The bells he gave out were very heavy and nice quality. They gave off a nice sound, but be prepared to hear them ringing constantly on the way back from the “North Pole.” The only part of the experience that could really use some improvement was the North Pole set up. It really lacked imagination, but not enough to impact whether you should go or not. I definitely recommend rewatching the movie before you go though, some of it was lost on my kids because they hadn’t seen the movie in so long.

I can’t say much for the polar express train ride as we were not able to get on! But the people who work, run and manage the Utica train station are the most horrible people! They have absolutely no business in the customer service industry! I can not even begin to describe how horrible the whole experience was to just want a very expensive magical time with your family!!! In my opinion don’t book with the Utica train station in the future! Cooperstown ny also has a polar express train ride and they offer much Cheaper tickets!

I don't know, I'm sorry. If you look them up on the internet at
Adirondack Scenic Railway and call them on their 800 number, I'm sure they can help you. Again, Sorry. But it is a fantastic trip!

Total cost for one way was $222.00. Adult $46 and child $39 plus tax.
First class tickets. Hope this helps.

I booked 2 first class tickets and want to book 2 more tickets. Will it be possible to make sure my second tickets are at the same table.
One of the reviews mentioned that the leg room is limited and my husband and I are both tall. We would rather just buy all 4 tickets at the table than be cramped the the entire ride.
Does anyone think this is possible?

If traveling with another family do we need to purchase tickets together to sit together, or can we purchase separately?

Yes I would also say the best thing is to call. As I'm not sure of what specials they have. Some times they have groups making a special trip. Also I think they have a Web Site.

Are daily scenic trips made on the Adirondack train from Utica?

Their website would have the information you need but no, I don't think they have daily scenic trips. I think it depends on the time of the year. Some weeks there are many more trips than at other times.
are there shops or souvenir stores nearby?
Adirondack Railroad
Utica, نيويورك
Hello Anita,
Yes, there are good amount of great shops to check out in Old Forge. If you take the train from Utica to Thendara with the layover, you have around four hours to explore Old Forge and its shops. We also have a gift shop in the Utica and Thendara stations that sell Adirondack Scenic Railroad souvenirs.

Is there places to eat in the Utica train station?
Adirondack Railroad
Utica, نيويورك
Sam,
Yes there is a restaurant in the station called Trackside located across from Amtrak on the same side as the DMV parking. They are open Monday through Friday from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm and serve dinner Thursday through Saturday from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
There are also vending machines located on the first and second floors by the stairs. But don't forget that if you are riding with us, our Utica to Thendara trains have a cafe car with food available to purchase as well!
