NEW YEAR’S EVE DINNER TRAIN

Not recommended for children under 8 years old. Please note that our signature dining car menu and per-person pricing is the same for adults and children.

Meals served in dining cars were often a highlight of train travel for travelers to socialize, relax, and enjoy first-class meals and service from stewards and wait staff. We do not have a formal dress code for the dinner train, but most passengers seem to enjoy and are encouraged to dress up for the occasion.

Historically, hats will also be removed in the dining car as you board and are seated for the duration of your meal service. Your Dining Car staff will be dressed in early-mid 20th century attire as they attend to your needs, and your participation with period-correct passenger etiquette helps to create an authentic and memorable experience for everyone!

Note: Due to the historic nature of this first-class dining setting, we ask that all passengers kindly exhibit noise etiquette as a courtesy to fellow passengers and our staff.

The vegetarian zucchini lasagna is both vegetarian and gluten free. Please contact us at423-894-8028 for any special dietary inquiries prior to purchase.

As a key route for passenger and industrial service in the early and mid-20th century, this historic excursion line begins on a pre-Civil War route crossing four bridges and through the Missionary Ridge Tunnel. As the train makes its way past East Chattanooga, additional sights that can be viewed from the train include the Chattanooga Zoo established in 1937 and the Warner Park fields, previously called “Olympia Park” near the turn of the 20th century, which served as a public recreation area for horse races, ballgames, and even mock Army maneuver demonstrations for soldiers training during WWI.

The train then travels alongside the historic Chattanooga National Cemetery established in 1863 and the Sculpture Fields at Montague Park, a 33-acre outdoor international sculpture museum, prior to the return trip back and arrival at the Grand Junction Depot.

Note: The tracks are located along parts of urban East Chattanooga. This ride will not go along any scenic mountains or rivers.

Gratuity and alcoholic beverages are not included in the ticket price.
