Lions Club Train Excursion

This is a segment from Explorer Television. Produced by Aki N.C. Peterson with Rick and Teresa Lukens. Since July of 1981 the North Pend Oreille Valley Lions Club and the Pend Oreille Valley Railroad (POVA) have gotten together to operate several weekend excursions rides in summer and fall along the Pend Oreille River in Northeast Washington.
These rides run along rugged track as it winds along the cliffs that shadow the river far below.
There are several tunnels and bridges along this stretch of track, ranging from low wooden trestles to the huge Box Canyon Bridge. Using three classic railroad coaches, three open-air cars converted from various rolling stock, and one caboose, this 20-mile round-trip takes approximately one and a half hours and is very affordable for the whole family.
