Set along the working waterfront of Garibaldi, the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad offers a nostalgic journey through some of the most picturesque stretches of the northern coast. Departing from its historic depot, vintage steam and diesel locomotives pull beautifully restored passenger cars south along the edge of Tillamook Bay and onward toward the quiet community of Rockaway Beach.
Passengers settle into plush, period-style seating as conductors share stories of the region’s logging heritage and railroad history. The route hugs the shoreline, revealing sweeping bay views, coastal forests and glimpses of wildlife along the way. Seasonal excursions add to the charm, from festive holiday trains to special event rides that draw families and rail enthusiasts alike.
Whether visitors are lifelong train aficionados or simply looking for a relaxing way to experience the coast, this scenic rail adventure delivers small-town character, living history and unforgettable views—all at a pace that invites travelers to slow down and savor the ride.
