Lately, I've been on a kick to try all the scenic train rides in West Virginia.

For one, they're fun.

And two, you get to see parts of the state you wouldn't ordinarily see.

But recently, Sara and I took an extra special train ride.


This one involved a murder mystery wine evening.

Through the Durbin & Greenbrier Valley Railroad, we booked the train that took us to the High Falls of Cheat and treated us to snacks and wine along the way.

When we were first seated, we were treated to crackers, cheese and grapes.

Then, the wine made its way around. We tried all of them and were treated to one full glass.

During this time, we read over a letter that gave us some insight as to who the murderer for the evening may have been.

The scene played out over the course of the train ride.

And, we were able to get up to the snack train and get some food to eat.

That included spinach artichoke dip, caprese skewers, hummus and other canapes.

Now, just to try the rest of the train rides!
