About Revolution Rail Co. Thurman.

Route 418 in Warrensburg, on the Adirondack rail corridor. Rail biking is the pedal-powered way to roll along a working rail bed: a four-person rail bike on flanged wheels, two pedals, no steering required because the tracks do the work. The Thurman tours run alongside rivers and through stretches of forest the road grid doesn't reach. The Tripadvisor Travelers' Choice Award has come in for seven consecutive years, which puts the operation in the top 10 percent of attractions worldwide. More than 400,000 riders have come through the system across all locations. That's volume, and it shows up as a smooth booking process and a published, predictable trip experience. Each route is built around immersion in the corridor's actual setting: river crossings, forest stretches, and the kind of perspective only a working rail bed gives. For families, dates, and solo riders, the ride works without prior experience and without a strong fitness base. Best for visitors who want a real outdoor activity in the Adirondacks that doesn't require hiking shoes or a paddle.
