Is the Grand Canyon Railway Accessible for a Wheelchair User?
Join us on an exceptional journey to the Grand Canyon via the Grand Canyon Railway as we celebrate a decade of marriage. In December 2022, an unexpected accident left Vanessa paralyzed, making this 10-year anniversary celebration all the more special. Grateful for the opportunity, we extend our heartfelt thanks to my mother, Cheryl, for making this adventure possible.
Wondering how to navigate the accessibility challenges of getting Vanessa and her manual wheelchair onto a train, we share our experience, tips, and tricks in this video. Explore the Grand Canyon Railway with us as we highlight the accessibility features of the trip and delve into the sights, sounds, and enjoyment of this remarkable experience.

Thank you!
SOOO happy for you to be able to take this trip!!! GREAT VIDEO blog you two!!!
Wonderful coverage. My wife is confined to a wheelchair due to a spinal injury. We love going camping etc but many places are not set up for the disabled. We almost went to Grand Canyon NP last year. Thanks for the information. We’ll go in 2024 thanks you revealing this fun excursion.

The Grand Canyon is definitely do able, with or without the train ride! There is lots of paved trail to see the canyon from, and generally adequate disabled parking. We haven’t braved camping yet since the injury but look forward to it.
You WERE on a train in Michigan! You were with your mom, me and my nephew Eric! The Pumpkin Train from Coopersville to Marne and back!❤❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing. I am not in a wheelchair, but have trouble bending my left leg due to a femur break on Christmas Eve 2021. I am planning on riding in 1st class on the train. Thanks again for sharing!!!!

I don’t know who told you that was the longest train tunnel in Arizona, but they were nowhere near correct.

@@CrabtreeAdventuresAh okay, didn’t pick up on that at all sorry, but in looking into it I seem to have discovered that Arizona only really has one rail tunnel through natural terrain that I can find, the one along the Verde Canyon Railroad, which is interesting.

It would be interesting to see the Verde canyon tunnel! I definitely didn’t sell the joke very well in the video…guess I won’t quit my day job…😂
