Durbin
Rocket Steam Train
The railroad operates a neat steam train from the Durbin Depot south
along the Greenbrier River. A rare Climax logging locomotive will
power the train as it meanders its way along the river. At the end
of the line is an unloading site alongside the river. On occasion,
the railroad has dropped its "Castaway Caboose" at the end of
the line, renting the rolling caboose hotel to visitors that want to get
away.
