HighLands Excursion Trains

Monterey's Hilltop Express newspaper is reporting:  If things go as planned, excursion trains from Monterey to places like Cookeville, Baxter and beyond, could start as soon as May.  Even with hopes that they could operate multiple trips on Sat/Sun of two consecutive weekends and maybe some school trips during the week.  In the meantime, if your interested in riding from Nashville to several different places, check out the Tennessee Central Railway Museum’s schedule
