Stops along the shore for you to explore
The train starts its journey in Garibaldi. Come to town early to check out the station and explore a bit before you board. Enjoy the Garibaldi Museum, which showcases the maritime history of the region, or visit the working fishing marina and docks at the Port of Tillamook Bay.
From Garibaldi, the train winds up the coast to Rockaway Beach, where you can walk on the beach, grab a bowl of the most delicious clam chowder, enjoy an ice cream cone, or take a stroll through the shops in town. (Note: you can hop on at either end of the line.)

A beautiful way to spend the day
Immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of yesterday as the steam whistle blows and the wheels grind across the tracks. As the locomotive pulls into stops in Rockaway Beach and Wheeler, the ringing of the bell will turn heads in awe and wonder.
