The annual Summer Nostalgia Ride is back, and it’s chugging to the Bronx on July 13.
Train enthusiasts hop aboard a vintage IRT, low-voltage choo-choo that departs from Grand Central terminal in Manhattan at 10 am and travels to Pelham Bay Park. There, visitors can hop on a vintage bus and take a ride to Orchard Beach to explore the magnificent coastline, historic houses, and nature trails.
Rides are suitable for children age 2 to 17 and their parents. Sorry, no strollers.
Nostalgia Ride, Grand Central Terminal, 87 E. 42nd Street on July 13 from 10 am to 5 pm. Tickets are $50 for adults and $25 for children ages 2 to 17.
