4 or 4 1/2 hours depending on which ride you take. There is a 1 hour layover in the middle of the ride

Nantahala Gorge Excursion  This 4 ½  hour westbound excursion carries you 44 miles to the Nantahala Gorge and back again. Travel the Little Tennessee and Nantahala Rivers across Fontana Lake and into the magic of the Nantahala Gorge. There is a one hour layover at the Nantahala Outdoor Center for sightseeing, a picnic lunch by the river and just plain relaxing. A great train for scenic fall photo opportunities! Tuckasegee River Excursion  This 32 mile roundtrip excursion travels eastbound along the Tuckasegee River through old railroad towns and scenic meadows. The train ventures into the historic Cowee Tunnel before passing the movie The Fugitive train wreck. The approximate 4 hour trip includes a 1 ½ hour  layover in the town of Dillsboro. There's time to shop, snack and explore this charming country village. A great fall afternoon getaway!

Depends on which train ride you choose, Dillsboro is 45 min to with a 1hr 45 min layover with 45 min ride back. The Nantahala Gorge is about 1 he 45 min ride with a 45 min layover then return trip. Seasonal rides such as Halloween, Thanksgiving, which are Charlie Brown themed, or the famous Polar Express train rides last an hour and a half. Their website is a little more specific. Hope this helps.
