Pumpkin Express- First Class

Climb aboard the Pumpkin Express and celebrate the magic of fall in New Hampshire! This special 45-minute excursion takes you on a relaxing ride through the Lakes Region at the peak of autumn, all while soaking in the sights and festive spirit of the annual NH Pumpkin Festival in nearby Laconia.

Your journey begins at the Laconia Railway station, where the crisp air and colorful foliage set the stage for an unforgettable fall adventure. As the train winds along the historic tracks, enjoy sweeping views of the season’s brilliant reds, oranges, and golds from the comfort of your seat. Families and festival-goers alike will love the festive atmosphere onboard, with pumpkins, seasonal décor, and the cheerful spirit of the season all around.

Perfect for guests of all ages, the Pumpkin Express is a family-friendly way to add a unique experience to your Pumpkin Festival weekend. Whether you’re visiting Laconia for the glowing jack-o’-lantern tower, live entertainment, or local food and crafts, a scenic train ride makes the festival experience even more memorable.
