Built in 1888, this section of the Louisville Southern Railroad once carried passengers from Lawrenceburg to Versailles and Lexington. Now you can ride the rails through the picturesque Kentucky countryside with Rail Explorers. Passing the thoroughbred horse farms, you may see mares and foals in the fields before descending into deep cuts through the limestone hills. Bring a drink and snack to enjoy at the turnaround area on the cliffs above the Kentucky River gorge. Enjoy the view of the Wild Turkey Distillery and the 1,659 ft long Young's High Bridge soaring 283 ft above the river. All Explorers are fitted with the 'REX Propulsion System' - custom built electric motors that make the journey truly effortless.
