PUMPKINS IN PARADISE – COACH CLASS

Come celebrate the fall season and Halloween with a relaxing train ride and fall event! Pick a pumpkin and go trick-or-treating.

Local haunted legends come alive in this unique experience aboard a climate-controlled Coach car. Available October 4 through November 2.

From the moment you enter, you are immediately thrust into a turn-of-the-century reality that you cannot escape. Or can you? Unleash your inner detective as you enter the mystery and try to escape an old stationary PRR Caboose in our Town Square.

Guests are traveling by rail for the big premiere of a new Broadway show and to attend an intimate reception with its star. As the train departs, guests are treated to drinks from the bar, hors d’oeuvres, and soon after, a body. Who could the killer be? The high-powered press agent, the famous actor, her jealous manager, or even the barman? It’s anyone’s guess!

The summer of 1863 comes alive at the Strasburg Rail Road! What if the battle of Gettysburg never happened and the Union troops needed to defend Lancaster and the northern railroads? This immersive, one-weekend-only event creates a story around “what happened if the bridge never burned.”

The SANTA CLAUS LIMITED is our classic, relaxed 45-minute steam train ride through Amish Country with a brief personal visit with Santa. This is a great way to experience the historic Strasburg Rail Road and see Santa Claus in person!

Enjoy a classic story time reading of “The Night Before Christmas” aboard our restored Victorian coach cars!

Join Santa, carolers, musicians, and more aboard our steam train for a holiday ride to remember! Afterward, visit the retail shops, Cafe 1832, and Mrs. Claus. The Santa’s Paradise Express is the FULL experience!

Take a family-friendly Easter train ride with the Easter Bunny as your conductor! Great fun for all ages.
