Dads ride the weekend train free when accompanied by their children! Take Dad on a fun weekend train ride with the family.

You may board the train at the Nelson Crossing Depot (the main Museum site) or at the Wabash Depot in downtown Monticello. The train ride lasts approximately one hour. Passengers may also choose to lay over at either depot to view displays and catch a later train back. You can walk through the display cars and view many pieces of rolling stock, as well as visit the Museum’s gift shop. At the Wabash Depot, you can walk to many shops and restaurants around Monticello’s Courthouse Square.

Want to ride in the cab of the diesel locomotive instead? A limited number of cab ride upgrade tickets are available for most trips. For information and cab ride tickets, see the ticket agent when you visit the Museum.

Tickets may be used on any one train trip on date for which issued.
