Thomas the Tank Engine fans can get their obligatory fix at this 1903 train station that has been completely restored to its former glory with exhibits on railroading in New England, a working vintage dispatcher̢۪s office, and, of course, an extensive train-themed gift shop. All this is just a prelude to a ride on the real thing, a 90-minute chug on a vintage 1920s coach pulled by a diesel engine from Lenox to Stockbridge (shorter jaunts turn around halfway at Lee). During foliage season, even parents will find plenty to blow their horns over.
