Looking for a unique and magical way to celebrate Easter with your little ones? Just a short drive from Philly, the Easter Bunny Express at New Hope Railroad is a springtime must-do for Philly families!

Starting April 5th through April 20th, you and your crew can hop aboard a vintage train ride through the scenic Bucks County countryside, complete with a special guest — the Easter Bunny himself!
A 45-minute train ride that’s fun for all ages
A visit from the Easter Bunny (with time to take photos!)
A sweet Easter treat for every child
Optional add-ons like professional photo packages
You’ll depart from the charming New Hope Railroad station and enjoy a relaxing ride while making unforgettable springtime memories. This is a great activity if you're looking to do something a little different this Easter — and it's especially fun for big kids who may have outgrown the traditional egg hunts!
Arrive early to check out the adorable New Hope shops and cafes nearby
Dress for the weather — it's a covered train, but windows may be open
Reserve your tickets ASAP — this event sells out quickly!

📍Location:
New Hope Railroad
32 W. Bridge Street, New Hope, PA 18938
🚘 About 1 hour from Center City
🎟️ Reserve your tickets here: Easter Bunny Express Info & Tickets »
This is the kind of event that makes spring feel extra special — and it’s perfect for creating a new family tradition.
