Experience
luxurious rail travel aboard the classic 1930’s
Pullman lounge/sleeper Dover Harbor-- travel to the
Tidewater region of Virginia to Williamsburg, the
Colonial Capital, or to the maritime city of Newport
News.
After an early morning departure from Washington
Union Station or Alexandria, enjoy breakfast served
at your table, as Amtrak’s Regional train #67 takes us
southward over the trestles spanning scenic
tributaries of the Potomac River and through the
historic cities of Fredericksburg and Richmond. Make
new friends and relax in comfortable Pullman
armchairs while white-jacketed attendants serve you
beverages, libations, and snacks.
Shortly before mid-day, Dover Harbor will arrive at
Williamsburg. Stroll back in time on the eighteenth
century streets in Colonial Williamsburg. Enjoy the
beauty of the spring flowers in the restored gardens or
tour the historic sites (admission fee) during a five hour
visit (the historic district is approximately a six block
walk from Amtrak’s Boundary Street Station); or,
continue your train ride to the end of the line at
Newport News where you can visit attractions such as
the world famous Mariner’s Museum, a short taxi ride
from the Newport News Amtrak station (admission fee).
Dover Harbor will depart from Newport News in late
afternoon with Amtrak’s Regional train #66, stopping at
Williamsburg on the way. A delicious supper will be
served while en route home to Alexandria and
Washington.
