We travel west through typical Kentucky countryside.  You will pass cattle and fields of corn, soybean, and tobacco.  We also pass through two Thoroughbred horse farms where you may see mares and foals in the fields.  The train then descends through deep limestone cuts to the palisades of the Kentucky River where you may disembark, and photograph Young's High bridge built in 1889 and see the Wild Turkey Distillery.
