Eastern Railroad Discussion > RJ Corman F-units

The doos will be in Kentucky in two weeks and wanted to see rj cormans f units,anyone know what city they keep them in ??? Thanks

Bardstown, KY

Bardstown is the home of the dinner train and they are visible from their parking lot on US 31 E when not in use. I believe they still do a lunch and dinner run. Don't forget the Kentucky Railway Museum ( it's close by).

 RJ Corman's F Units are normally assigned to the dinner train (My Old Kentucky Home DinnerTrain) operated from the old L&N Depot on 31E on the north side of Bardstown KY.  Suggest you contact them for a schedule even if you look online.
The Kentucky Railway Museum is located about 14 Mi. south of the dinner train on 31E in New Haven.  In addition to the mmuseum, they operate train rides.  Suggest you contact them for schedule info.
Hope this info is helpful and that you enjoy your visit to KY.

Also, if you are at all interested in bourbon or distilleries, I suggest you go to Maker's Mark at Loretto, which is more or less between Bardstown and New Haven.  It's a nice little tour and the distillary sets in a very scenic locale.

if you are in the Bowling Green area might want to consider putting the Corvette factory tour on your schedule. It is worth a trip...

I hear they have the wrecked ones that fell into the sinkhole a couple years ago still on display.

that's true. That was one of the more popular attractions at the museum but from what I understand it has since been filled in.

Bowling Green also has Historic Park & Rail Museum.  Their exhibits include an ex C&NW E8 painted L&N, an L&N REPO fully restored including all interior details, plus a number of other railcars.

If you are in the Lexington Bluegrass Region, a visit to the Bluegrass Railroad Museum in Versailles would be worthwhille.  They have a number of historic engines and passenger cars.  Plus they offer a scenic ride from Versailles almost to Lawrenceburg on an old Southern branch.
