About Huckleberry Railroad
Welcome to Huckleberry Railroad, a beloved part of Crossroads Village in Flint, Michigan. With a ~40-minute round trip around Mott Lake, you’ll ride behind steam locomotive #152 and a diesel engine #12, pulled by a fleet of 11 wooden passenger coaches and a historic wooden caboose. Trains operate Thursdays through Fridays during village hours, and special events like Day Out With Thomas, Railfans Weekend, Halloween Ghosts & Goodies, and Christmas Holiday Magic draw families from across Genesee County and beyond. We’ve got you covered with practical details to help you plan your visit, from parking and transportation to nearby hotels and dining options.
For a smooth visit, arrive during village hours (11:00 am–5:00 pm) and enjoy a kid-friendly, memory-making ride on a classic train. Parking includes motorcoach options and village parking. The site is easily accessible off I-475 (exit 13) and is convenient for travelers flying into Bishop International Airport (FNT). While seating isn’t published by car or section, you’ll be seated aboard the train cars for a comfy ride with scenic views around Mott Lake. When planning, check for special event dates and festival programming to secure your seats and make the most of your Crossroads Village experience. And if you’re looking for a place to stay or grab a bite nearby, we’ve highlighted trusted hotel partners and nearby dining options to fit every family’s needs.
