The Shamrock Express

All Aboard for a Kids’ St. Patrick’s Day Train Ride!

Climb aboard and enjoy a scenic journey through Woolwich County, where rolling countryside and nearby Mennonite farms set the stage for a magical railway adventure!

The little ones will love the extra-special St. Patrick’s Day fun, including a fun gift to commemorate their journey—because every leprechaun deserves a treasure!

Your round-trip journey begins at either:

• Waterloo Northfield Station (across the street from the ION station; no parking available), or
• Farmers Market Station (330 Farmers Market Road, between the St. Jacobs Farmers Market and the Value Village Shopping Centre; free parking available).

Please note: There are no refunds unless WCR cancels a train. Missed trains or bad weather will not be refunded.

This is a round-trip ride to Elmira and back with no stop in the Village of St. Jacobs. Before or after your train ride, we encourage you to visit the St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market or take the short drive to the Village of St. Jacobs for more St. Patrick’s Day festivities, shopping, and fun!

Don’t miss this lucky opportunity for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration your kids will never forget!
