Grand Canyon Railway

All aboard! Ride to the Grand Canyon on a century-old railway. Departing daily from Williams, Arizona, the train features fully-restored steam and diesel locomotives pulling vintage passenger cars; both first class and coach sections are available.

Before climbing aboard, visit the free rail museum in the historic depot and see a re-creation of an Old West shootout. Once en route, relax in the comfort of the train car as strolling musicians play western tunes, and coach attendants share Grand Canyon folklore and railway anecdotes. Best of all, gaze out of the window at the remarkable scenery rolling by. High desert becomes prairie, and then prairie turns to pine, until finally the view changes so dramatically that it's plain the train has reached its destination. Welcome to the Grand Canyon.
