Enjoy a four-course meal, gracious service and live entertainment in a grand setting. Walkersville Southern Railroad operates dinner trains twice a month from May through November, in addition to a few special dinner train events. For 2013, we will host a Valentine's Day dinner train and a Mother's Day dinner train. In addition, we offer dinner trains the first Saturday of each month from May through November and mystery dinner trains the third Saturday of each month from May through November. October's mystery dinner train will be a costume mystery dinner train.


Board our richly restored dining car at the train station in Walkersville for 6 PM departure, and settle back and relax to fine dining throughout your leisurely two-hour train ride. We don't currently serve alcoholic beverages, but you are welcome to bring your own. (We do have wine glasses for your use.) We will return to the station at approximately 8 PM.


We have 10 tables in our dining car, each seating four persons. Dining car seating begins at 5:45 PM. In the true spirit and tradition of railroad dining, you may be seated at tables of four with other guests if there are only two in your party. If you have three or four persons in your party, you will have a private table.


Dinner train tickets are $69.00 per person (including tax and gratuity), and $50.00 for children 12 and under. Mystery dinner train tickets are $75.00 per person (including tax and gratuity) and $56.00 for children 12 and under. We discourage patrons from bringing children that are too young to sit in a seat by themselves or who may not be able to sit reasonably quietly for two hours without disturbing other patrons. We do not have high chairs or booster seats. The children's menu is the same as the adult menu but with smaller portions. Keep in mind that we do not operate a full service restaurant and we may not have items that are not listed on the menu. If you require something special, please call us ahead of time.


Tickets may be purchased online or by calling 301-898-0899 or 1-877-363-WSRR toll free. No refunds will be given for any reason unless the train is cancelled. If you must cancel your reservation at the last minute, please try to give us as much notice as you can. We can reschedule you for another date.
