On eight Saturdays and one
Sunday The A Train
travels into northern Hamilton County. It makes a
quick stop first in Arcadia
discharging those that wish to visit there and then
proceeds to Atlanta.
The train departs for the return to Noblesville from Atlanta
at 2:00pm. Of course, on the return trip we stop
and pick up those that stayed in Arcadia.
In Arcadia
passengers can enjoy several artisan studios with
demonstrations or visit Tabby Tree Weaver and learn how
to weave. To learn more about such offerings in
Acadia visit the web site of the Arcadia
Arts Initiative. While in Arcadia also be sure to view the
history and art at the Heritage Depot.
Atlanta
boasts the wonderful Atlanta Mercantile, featuring items
unique to Indiana along with delicious snacks and ice
cream.

On several dates
this year the Bicycle Car
will be in the train when it travels north. You
can bring along your bike. Ride around Arcadia or
Atlanta for 90 minutes and return to Noblesville via the
train. Or ride your bike in the area as long as you
please and ride it back to Noblesville. Please be sure to
check dates that the Bicycle
Car will be operating and its destination on that
day.
