The show was cute and we enjoyed the train ride. If you get motion sick, be prepared as the train does sway a lot. Didn’t bother me but wife was still bothered even the next day. Main entree of prime rib was probably best steak I have had in a long time, and I eat a lot of steak. The salad was pretty sad. Lack of taste, croutons, just overall a miss. The pretzel roll was awesome and wish they gave two instead of just one. Wife loves the cheese tray, I don’t eat cheese so she got extra. The soup was meh. Dessert was surprisingly good. I expected to hate it but ate the entire thing. The waiters on the other hand were sub par. Drinks were rarely refilled or we were forgotten. I was left thirsty a lot. They expect a ten dollar per person tip on top of the 125 you pay for train ride, which is pretty obnoxious to find out once on train. Party of 7 with our kids and that’s a new big expense. We only drank water and coffee and barely had them refilled. The entertainment was fun and actors enjoyed their job. So it’s worth checking out, but I hope they add waiters so they can improve service levels .

Three hour train ride, prime rib dinner, and a murder mystery play. Absolutely amazing. Would give more stars if possible. Went a second time this year. Prices went up from $75 to $125 in a year...Inflation? Got prime rib again seemed to be better than last year. Only negative was sitting across from table who got very drunk and belligerent.

William Drake | Sep 11, 2020
Ales Mer | Sep 11, 2020

They have a "Holiday Train Mystery " that runs until New Year's Eve. I'm thinking that the gift certificates should not expire, paid for and up front. That's just my opinion, I do hope that it's right.

Look at the menu on their website. They only offer what is on the menu. From their website - "Vegan/Vegetarian, or Gluten-Free Options are NOT available." I highly recommend taking the train. It is a great time if you like murder mystery shows. You are front row to all the action.

There is a bunch of sexual suggestions and undertones. Would not recommend for children. Also you are stuck on a train for four hours. They could do the play in 10 minutes and you could eat in 30. The rest if the time you just sit there bored.
