The ticket price includes round-trip transportation from ETSU, two nights lodging in Chattanooga, aquarium admission, two train rides, two dinners and two breakfasts. More information about the trip, ticket order forms, payment options and liability waivers are available at etsu.edu/railroad. Choose “events” and then “rail excursions.”

“This is going to be a terrific holiday adventure if you love trains and the scenic outdoors with the added attraction of an afternoon at one of the premiere aquariums in the nation,” organizers said.
