Dear Tupper Lake Business Community,

This Sunday, July 13, the Adirondack Scenic Railroad kicks off its 2025 passenger schedule to Tupper Lake. Trains will operate every Sunday through October 12 (with the exception of September 7), along with select Saturday service.

The Sunday train, "The Adirondack Mountaineer," offers passengers a 4.5-hour layover in Tupper Lake, giving them ample time to explore and support local businesses. The Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST) is partnering with the Adirondack Scenic Railroad to provide passengers with helpful information as they board, so they can make the most of their visit.

If your business will be open and welcoming train passengers this season, we kindly ask that you complete this short participation form. If you’re offering any special promotions or discounts for train guests, please include that information as well, so we can share it with riders.
