3/5/24 - By Laurie Rein

Easter bunny trains are an exciting way railroads in New Jersey and Pennsylvania mark the Easter holiday. These Easter train rides are a perfect springtime diversion for train-loving kids, and many offer an opportunity to snap Easter Bunny pictures as well. Easter 2024 falls on Sunday, March 31, but the rides start sooner.

Be sure to get your tickets early; these Easter Bunny trains sell out quickly. Find more picks for the Easter holiday and beyond in our Guide to Spring Activities.  

Please click through to our listings for full details, including times, recommended ages, and advance ticket requirements.
