Conch Train Key WestConch Train rounding the corner at Higgs Beach in Key West
Conch trains like the one in this picture haul thousands of tourist around Key West every day. They really do a great job of showing tourist Old Town Key West. Each docent/driver constantly delivers information about Key West, the history, architecture, characters and personalities that live here or have lived here. Key West Conch Train
The Key West Conch Train is not a train in the traditional sense. As you can see from this picture Conch Trains have automobile tires and do not run on steel tracks like a normal train. Key West Conch Train
While this may "look" like a train locomotive you can see that it is actually a regular automobile engine converted to run on propane. Each driver also doubles as a docent. And they do a remarkably good job.
