The Skunk Train has officially raised the bar for outdoor amenities with the debut of its newest... throne room. Yes, you read that right. The legendary Redwood Route just got a serious upgrade in the bathroom department, and frankly, it’s about time.
Introducing The Whizzle Stop, a fully functional, fully fabulous bathroom-on-wheels that now awaits guests at Glen Blair Junction. Housed inside a converted box car, this mobile marvel features actual plumbing, running water, full-sized stalls, and real sinks. A dramatic departure from the portable restrooms of days (and complaints) past.
Gone are the days of crossing your fingers at the porta-potty. This sleek, clever restroom rolls down the rails, greeting guests with a clean design, thoughtful fixtures, and a genuinely pleasant place to handle their business in the woods.
This swanky loo is already turning heads (and relieving sighs of relief) and will also serve as a much-needed visual asset for event planners who want to know one very important thing: “Yes, there’s a bathroom and it’s commodious.”

California Western Railroad / Skunk Train, located in the redwood forests of Northern California’s Mendocino County, is a heritage railroad that has been operating both freight and passenger service since 1885. Initially used to move redwood logs to the Mendocino Coast sawmills from the rugged back country, the Skunk Train has become a beloved institution touted as one of the “10 Best Rail Tours in the Country” (USA Today), and a “Top 10 Family Activity in California” (National Geographic Traveler). The Skunk Train journey covers 40 miles of scenic delights and 30 bridges, all while retaining its original charm—minus the historic pungent aroma that once preceded its arrival. Operating year-round, this multi-generational experience welcomes passengers to bring along their families and even their dog, ensuring a memorable and inclusive adventure.
