Blanchard Springs Caverns​

The Living Caves​

The limestone rock from which the caves and their formations developed was laid down in an ancient sea more than 350 million years ago. ​

​With three guided tours available, Blanchard remains a “living” cave in part because of the care given by visitors and the United States Forest Service. Thus, the formations inside continue to grow as calcite is actively deposited by seeping and dripping water. One of the outstanding examples of formation growth is the Giant Flowstone, one of the largest in the U.S., at 164 feet (50 m) long, 33 feet (10 m) wide, and 30 feet (9.1 m) thick.

Arkansas Railroad Museum ​

Cotton Belt Route​

Located in Pine Bluff along the Arkansas River, the Arkansas Railroad Museum is one of the state’s larger collections of historic railway equipment. Most items are housed inside in the former Saint Louis Southwestern Railway — the famed “Cotton Belt” — heavy machine shop building, which still features a working transfer table for moving exhibits inside and outside the building. ​

​The cornerstone of the collection is Cotton Belt #819, a heavy “Northern” type steamer and the last of 5 such locomotives built onsite by the railroad’s own heavy steam shops. Retired by the railroad in 1953, No. 819 was later rescued from deterioration from outdoor display and restored to excursion operation in 1986.
