If you will be riding the train with us, we do provide assistance with a wheelchair lift which can be used for wheelchairs, or anyone who may not have be able to climb the stairs on our coaches. Not all coaches are accessible but we do provide accessible seating in the Long Island Car and one of the Open Air Cars. Secure wheelchair spaces are available on those cars. Tickets to specifically reserve these limited spaces are available for purchase.
Although not all vintage train coaches are accessible, a our wheelchair lift may also be used to aid passengers with limited mobility who may not be able to navigate the stairs into the train cars.
Lift unavailble along the line.
Wheelchair loading and unloading may be unavailable during events that occur in locations other than the Calera Depot, such as the Ozan Wine Train or the Pumpkin Patch Express.
