Confirmed from Jersey Shore Live Steam Railroad's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Free train rides for kids and adults on 1/8th-scale locomotives plus walking trails.
What runners say about Jersey Shore Live Steam Railroad
Fun ride. The route they were running was a short route. But they allowed you to ride it again. Cost is for a donation.
Very unique and very special small gauge railroading club in the woods of New Gretna, New Jersey. I stopped-in on an off day when the trains weren't running and there was absolutely nobody there, but it seemed like a really cool, very special, secret little place.
Great place to spend some time with the family. Bring the kids, bring the dogs, it's all good. The trains are fun. The guys love to talk about their trains. The surrounding area is beautiful. Some trails to walk. Plenty of parking and a very enjoyable time can be had here. It is I the woods so take precautions.
Great place to walk in the woods along the wide paths and watch the miniature trains.
Trail conditions & character
“The only possible detractor that I observed is that the parking area is pretty small.”
