St Marys Railroad — Attraction in St. Marys

Very disappointing... To start, their website is awful. It's hard to even figure out if you are on the right website. The trip descriptions are so vague, that you can't tell what you are actually getting with the trip that you book. My family and I did the Easter Train. With the little information on the website, we believed that our train journey would last 2 hours and go into the downtown area of St. Mary's. On our non-scenic route next to Wendy's, McDonald's, and several car dealerships, the staff made an announcement to get cameras ready because we were about to cross a picturesque bridge. Finally, we thought we were about to get to the pretty part. We then came to a complete stop for 5 minutes in between the chemical tankers and reversed, heading back to the station. The staff, who were really doing their best, started scrambling to entertain with silly games to distract from the fact that we were just denied what we were all expecting.

It never happened. Again, I have to say that the crew on the train were very friendly and doing their very best to ensure a good time for the kids. Beyond that, it was a total disappointment and not worth the money. There is potential, but they need to work on their operations in...

This place is amazing. I first came here back in 2016 for my 9th birthday, and it was amazing. There were pirates who boarded the train before we left the station, so that was a fun little experience. I later went to the part of town by the river (that the town is named after), and I found out where the pirates came from. In short, it was the second best trip to St. Mary's ever. 1st being my more recent trip to...

Rode the Santa Train ride and had a nice time. The crew and volunteers are all very welcoming. Easy to get there, get on and then just a short drive down to the waterfront. Made for a great day. Would recommend...
