Arcade and Attica Railroad - Trina Fiddles on an Excursion Train

If you grew up south of Rochester, chances are you went on this very same excursion ride when you were a kid - the Arcade and Attica Railroad. And so you blinked and now here you are headed for the train again, but this time as a parent grandparent.

Sometimes Trina plays fiddle with legendary Squeezebox Johnny and the combined effect of fiddle and accordion makes a lot of people on the train smile and sing and be happy. Trina and Johnny both wear goofy hats and Johnny belts out songs and often makes silly jokes. Trina just fiddles and smiles and suggests tune to play while soaking up the countryside. At first it was tricky to fiddle on a train and to jump between cars with the fiddle and bow.

It's a leisurely drive through the country to get to Arcade, an amazing and unforgettable train ride through tall cornfields in rich countryside, and a very unusual and fun way to spend an afternoon. Not much walking is required so it's good for people of all ages. Learn more here - www.arcadeandatticarr.com
