The Lake Linden and Torch Lake Railroad

Picture
ALL ABOARD!
We provide rides around our campus on the LL&TL RR's 4/10th mile loop. The railroad is available thanks to both many donations over the years, and the hard work of numerous volunteers.​
Your train ride or train pass fee helps pay for the operation of the locomotives and passenger cars, but we'd welcome your generous donation toward the maintenance of the steam engine, track and ties. In 2025 we are running the gas engine with passengers on Wednesdays and the steam engine with passengers in Saturdays, weather permitting.
TRAIN RIDE FEES:
Adults (over 18)            $6.00
Students (age 6 to 17)  $4.00
Children (age 3 to 5)    $3.00
​Under 3                          Free
