The
St. Kitts Scenic Railway
follows narrow gauge tracks that circle the entire island and a trip
of four hours. However, most people travel only about
two-thirds of the distance, a trip of under three hours.
Depending on demand, the train makes up to three trips daily, starting
at 9 a.m. In
summer, however, the train may not even run every day.
The Sugar train departs from
the Needsmust
Station near
Basseterre's airport. The
cost is US$89 for adults, US$49 for children and includes snacks and
drinks. Yes--there are bathrooms in each passenger car. Full information
is available at 1-869-465-7263 or
www.St.KittsScenicRailway.com.
But
now, it's time to roll because the train is about to leave the station.
