Rarilriding with Children

Children genuinely enjoy Railriding. There is nothing better than seeing those giant smiling faces.
Here are some important guidelines and reminders if you are bringing little ones along.

Seating Options

Infants up to age 1

Rear facing car seat   OR    Infant Chest carrier


  • If you wish to use a front facing car seat make sure you count the seat it needs to attach to in your total when booking your cars (it cannot be attached to a rumble seat)

  • Rear facing car seats will be strapped in with locking seat belts

  • Chest carriers must be able to secure the infant into the carrier and onto an adult, cloth slings are not permitted

Ages 1 to 7

Add On Child Seats

Child Seats REQUIRED for ages 1 and 2

(6 available per trip out of Joseph & 2 available per trip out of Minam)

  • Non-Pedaling add on seat for use on Tandem Cars only

  • Add up to 2 Child Seats per Tandem Car

  • 5-point or lap style seat belt depending on child size

    Very Important:
    Child Seats can only be put onto Tandem Cars, not Quads

Seating Examples
Ages 3 to 5

Regular Seat + 5 Point Harness

(4 available per Joseph trip & 2 available per Minam trip)

If a Add On Child Seat isn't available, preferred, or able to be added to your car (e.g. Quad Cars) children 3 to 5 will be able to sit in one of our regular seats with the addition of our 5 point safety harness
