Ride “The Husking Bee” Pumpkin Patch Train at Danbury Railway Museum


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 10/26/2025
Our well-loved annual fall fundraiser is back, perfect for families with young kids. The short 20-minute round trip stops at our very own patch, where passengers get to pick out their very own pumpkin and everyone gets to try some local apple cider and cookies. There are numerous photo ops and even a vintage tractor!
