Oregon is full of immense beauty and splendor, and while we’re all for getting outside on an epic adventure, sometimes it’s nice to simply sit back and revel in the resplendence of the Beaver State. And that’s exactly what you’ll get to do on the Santiam Excursion Trains. This passenger railroad in Lebanon, Oregon, boasts a fleet of beautifully restored historic trains, perfect for sitting back and soaking up the scenery. What’s more, the railroad offers a Sunday Brunch excursion that allows diners to enjoy the bounty of the Beaver State, too, and we propose booking a ticket this winter, so you can wine and dine in style while enjoying the quiet beauty of these cold weather months.
