I been there a few times but each time, the experience is a little bit different. I read that the first year they opened was the best in terms of lighs and music.

It reminded us a lot of the tunnels in Niagara Falls, though this one is definitely on a smaller, more intimate scale. What made it extra special was reading about the history and imagining the role this tunnel once played for trains and industry. It’s well kept, easy to walk, and a fun stop if you’re in the area. The only thing we thought could make the experience even better would be if they offered one-way train rides through it; round trips are fine, but having that option would...
