Rhode Island has begun a two-week pause, which is allowing us time to spend time with our families,  do some online shopping…. and make holiday plans for the near future. There are still plenty of ways to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year in Rhody, some of which are a little more out-of-the-box than others. The Newport & Narragansett Bay Railroad Co. has received a lot of praise for their efforts to provide a safe, healthy environment for guests to enjoy their train rides. And their holiday murder mystery dinner is pretty enticing.

The Newport & Narragansett Bay Railroad Co. is located in Portsmouth.
