The Green Mountain Railroad supports sustainable tourism by maintaining historic trains and promoting environmental awareness.
Green Mountain Railroad operates scenic rail excursions between Burlington and Vergennes, Vermont, specializing in themed dining trains and seasonal event rides. The railroad offers a collection of curated experiences, including Cocktails on the Rails — a 2.5-hour speakeasy-style journey with leather barrel seats and an onboard bar — and the Independence Day Flyer, a 75-minute round trip timed to deliver prime views of the Waterfront Park fireworks without parking hassles. The Champlain Valley Dinner Train appears in two formats: a classic two-and-a-half-hour gourmet dinner ride featuring a three-course meal and Vermont scenery, plus a murder mystery variant that combines the three-course meal with interactive comedy from Kevin O’Brien’s Upstage Productions. Each trip pairs scenic lakeside views with professionally prepared dining and themed entertainment. Tickets are sold per trip and seating is assigned according to the departure schedule. Green Mountain Railroad’s offerings appeal to couples, families, and groups seeking an elevated, hands-off celebration or a memorable night out on the rails.
