The Night Owl
Fourth of July Weekend,
Thursday, July 2, 2009 to Monday, July 6, 2009
Join the Washington
DC Chapter as it recreates a classic railroading experience--
traveling overnight in a Pullman berth. Our trip back in time travels
the Pennsylvania/New Haven Railroads' Night Owl route
from Washington D.C. to Boston.
Your trip aboard our grand
Pullman, Dover Harbor, departs Thursday evening July 2nd from Washington,
DC's
Union Station with Amtrak Regional train #66. Your
Pullman porter will attend your every need including a late
evening nightcap in the car's comfortable lounge. Then
snuggle into your authentic Pullman berth as our train
glides through the night. Photos and historical information
for Dover Harbor can be found at www.doverharbor.com.
The next morning, greet
the day with a continental breakfast when you awake. After an early
morning arrival at Boston's South Station, you'll have the next three days
to visit the many neighborhoods of Beantown. Walk the
Freedom Trail to see the city's historic sights including
famed Old North Church. Ride the 'T' to Cambridge, home
of Harvard University, or head to the waterfront to Quincy
Market, the Long Wharf, and the Boston Aquarium. On
Saturday evening head to the Esplanade to watch one of
our nation?s premier Fourth of July fireworks displays.
During our stay in Boston,
passengers may enjoy one of the privileges of private rail car
travel-- that of bringing your hotel with you. Guests will be permitted
to sleep aboard Dover Harbor, during the weekend stay at Boston's
South Station.
Dover Harbor takes leave
of Boston on Sunday evening, July 5th with Amtrak's Regional train #67 for our return
adventure. Dream sweet dreams as our train passes
along coastal New England's small towns and villages.
Awake back in Washington where, in the tradition of the
Night Owl, passengers may remain aboard the car after an
early morning arrival in Washington until 8:00AM.
