Join us for Dinner Train on September 11, 2025!

Tickets for the 2025 Dinner Train will go on sale mid 2025

Join us on September 12 for an unforgettable evening of fine dining aboard vintage dinner trains at the National Railroad Museum. Bring your friends and family on the 1930s Chicago, Burlington & Quincy #300 Silver Spirit train car or the 1920s Atlantic Coast Line Dothan Dining Car and experience our Dinner Train event. The Menu will be released to ticket holders a month before the event as only seasonal, fresh ingredients are used by Iron Duck!

Your journey begins at 6:00 p.m. on the train platform where you will hear Justin Lambrecht, our Director of Education, share information about dinner trains of the past. Then, you will board your train and set out around the track where you and your guest(s) will enjoy a delectable dinner on the high bridge looking out across the Fox River and Dutchman Creek at sunset.

Funds raised support the National Railroad Museum, a non-profit, educational institution with roots dating back to 1956. Tickets are $125 per person and can be bought in pairs of 2 or 4.
