If you take the train rides from Van Buren they offer tourists the most scenic ride 3-hour ride through the picturesque Boston Mountains of the Ozark region of the state. Be prepared to see stunning views along the way as you ride over trestles and through a 1700-foot-long tunnel that will blow your mind.
