Michigan. Operating on weekends and holidays only during the

near the AuSable River in jackpine country offering its visitors
a relaxing 18 minute rail adventure that travels through a jackpine
forest, part of the Huron National Forest and overlooks the beautiful
Comins Creek Valley. |

| "ALL
ABOARD!!" Your ride on the Michigan
AuSable Valley Railroad begins at the quaintly designed depot
and gift shop where you can purchase tickets and fresh, hot popcorn.
While waiting for the train, passengers enjoy browsing through
the gift shop where souveniers and many railroad related items
are available for sale, including T-shirts, signs, mugs, pins,
etc. |

| Passengers
young and old travel through a 115 foot wooden tunnel and make
their way toward the first of two breathtaking wooden trestles. |
| The first trestle
stretches over 220 feet long and overlooks the beautiful Comins
Creek Valley filled with wildlife such as deer, beaver, red hawks,
heron, and even an occasional bear or elk! |
| Your
journey continues through the forest, across the second wooden
trestle, around an old log homestead, past antique cars, and
back around through the woods where you return safely to the
station. |
