Grand Rapids Motorcar Rides
Scenic open-air rail adventures across the historic Maumee River bridge
🍂 Current Season Status Update
Regular weekend fall motorcar rides concluded for the season on October 18th. However, the adventure isn’t over yet!
Join us for our inaugural Pumpkin Patch Motorcar Hayrides, running through October 31st!
Experience the Line
While the Clover Leaf Crew prepares our historic Bluebird Passenger Train for its return, our motorcar offers a unique, intimate rail adventure. This short, narrated excursion takes passengers across our iconic bridge and along the line directly to the passenger platform at Grand Rapids Road.
Your knowledgeable guide provides a brief history tour focusing on northwest Ohio’s rich transportation heritage from the late 1800s through the mid-1900s.
Fun Fact: During the annual Grand Rapids Apple Butter Festival, our motorcar converts into a critical mass-transit shuttle, efficiently moving thousands of visitors between remote parking zones and downtown festivities!
