Sold Out Tickets
When you click on the BUY NOW button to purchase tickets, you are taken to our Calendar where you choose your day and time for the tickets you want to purchase. If a seat type, such as the Family Caboose, is not visible on the order detail for a particular ride, it is sold out. One way to check is to mouse over the event in the calendar and view the available ticket price range. If the available ticket price is less than $125, the Family Caboose seat type is sold out for that ride. There are currently Family Caboose Tickets available on August 19th and September 2nd.  If the ride you wish to purchase will not permit you to purchase the total number of tickets you need, that means the seats are sold out and not available. If that happens, please select another ride time.

Masks No Longer Required
Masks are no longer required by Federal mandate on trains and will no longer be required to be worn by our visitors or staff on our trains or in the rail yard. We respect those who choose to wear a mask and know for some visitors masks are necessary. The good news is you now have a choice.

Calendar and Tickets
To access the 2022 schedule, pricing, and ticket purchasing please click on the Buy Tickets button.  You may also purchase tickets at the Ticket Office on ride days, assuming the ride you want still has seats available.  We prefer credit cards at the ticket office, but can accept cash, if necessary. Children under 2 are free as a lap rider and no ticket is required.  There is a place in the order process to indicate how many children under 2 will be riding.

Attractions
Be sure to visit the attractions we have on site, such as our 6 track G-Scale Model Railroad, Gift Shop, Post Office Car and Vintage Caboose.  You can also view projects in progress such as the Federal 15-year inspection for the #17 Steam Locomotive and our Goldston Depot restoration (from the outside for now). These are all free of charge and can be viewed on any ride day.
