Proposals and Engagement Parties

The National Railroad Museum is a unique location to ask your special someone to marry you. The possibilities to pop the question are endless! Create a scavenger hunt throughout the Museum grounds and end atop the observation tower or schedule a visit to the Museum just for two. Our staff would love to help you plan a surprise to remember. Once they say “Yes” we would love to be your choice for an engagement party venue!

Anniversary Parties

Celebrate a special or milestone anniversary by bringing together friends and family for an event at the National Railroad Museum. Say “I do” all over again with a vow renewal ceremony inside our Lenfestey Center or out at our Fox River Outdoor Space. Host an intimate dinner party using either the Dothan Dining Car or Silver Spirit, or hold an extravagant party in our Lenfestey Center. There are many options waiting for you!

Funeral Receptions & Celebrations of Life

If you are celebrating the life of a loved one, you want your funeral reception venue to be as unforgettable as they were. The National Railroad Museum offers spaces designed for large groups of family and friends and options for a smaller affair.
