Enjoy the best of Connecticut’s fall foliage and take a train ride to the Pumpkin Patch where the kids can select their own pumpkin, navigate through a hay maze and everyone can savor cider and donuts!

Parents and grandparents can bring their children and grandchildren along for a ride on “Pumpkin Patch Train” and watch them pick out their own pumpkin in our field. The “Hay Maze” will challenge the little ones. All will enjoy the magnificent foliage this time of year! Everyone should bring cameras to capture these wonderful memories! Plus, we’ll have donuts and cider for all passengers.

Pumpkin Patch Trains are scheduled for Saturday, Sunday October 24, and 25 at noon and 2pm. The kids can choose their own pumpkin in the Naugatuck Railroad’s own pumpkin patch, one per child. Re-board the train for the ride back to Thomaston.
