Our train, is a traveling history museum with passenger cars that were make in 1926. Stepping back in time, we want you to make some memories as we travel along the tracks.  The Iron Mountain is the only train we know of that is run entirely by trained volunteers. Every person you meet is a person who volunteers their personal time to make sure we share a part of history with you. We want our passengers to have a good time, and we work very hard to make that happen. There are lots of activities going on during our excursions. Train robberies, treasure hunts, music, dinosaurs---you just never know who will show up for the ride.  But we guarantee it won't be ordinary. 

BUY A TIE

Be a part of Railroad History!

Since we are a volunteer railway, we are always looking for fun things to help us preserve the history of our tracks. We came up with a way to let you be a part of it as well.

 Help us by donating $20 to the railway and we will put a new railroad tie into service on our rail line in your honor.  A volunteer will paint your name on the railroad tie. Once we put your tie on the tracks we will send you a photo.

Come and buy a tie! It's only a $20 donation & you will get to be a part of railroad history. 

Ask about this when you arrive to the Depot or by phone.

Special Information

Reservations can be made for all events below, EXCEPT for the Santa Express. On the day of your reservation, please check in at the Depot 30 minutes to an hour before boarding. 

All Murder Mystery and Chuck Wagon Dinner events include a Wine Tasting. 

 

Wine for a local winery is available for purchase. 

Alcohol is only allowed on evening special events. Check with reservations to confirm.  

Our two main cars are not air conditioned. Our train cars were made in 1926 and air conditioning was considered as opening the windows back then, which is what we do. Does it get warm? Yes. But when we go down the tracks, there is a breeze. We do have a one air conditioned car, which holds 65 passengers. If you must be in the air conditioning, please call before your train ride and also let our conductor know as you board.
