North Creek Ski Train

[skiboy895]

Hey guys! Just wanted to let everyone know, the passenger railroad that just started up this summer from Saratoga to North Creek will be providing ski trains to the area for the first time in decades! Tickets seem pretty reasonable-$70 for train and lift ticket as well as a couple drinks on the way home! I rode the train in the summer and can't emphasize how well run the organization is run. Can't wait for the season to start!! -Link https://www.sncrr.com/snow-train.html

Good news for the RR and local jobs. That makes me happy. Not so good news for the bike trail that would have been built along the rail if it had not been approved. I actually think that would have broughts more, sustained growth to the region and the town of NC.


Also a good negotiation for the snow mobiliers. Guess cleaning the rail lines is too costly in the winter? Or the ground it too frozen to mine--but really dont think that is it.

Myself, I prefer General Motors products. But you will find other people that will tell you Ford or Chrysler products are the best.
