How’s this for a Father’s Day gift? A two-hour train ride across the Smoky Hill River Valley, riding in classic dining cars that feature Kansas’ best  home cooking! That describes the Smoky Valley Limited’s annual Father’s Day Express! On Saturday, June 14, our chef, Jeff Higgins Abilene’s Brookville Hotel presents a good, old fashioned fried chicken dinner, with those famous Brookville side dishes: real mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet and sour coleslaw, creamed corn, and homemade biscuits. And for dessert: homemade ice cream!  Our train leaves the historic grandeur of Abilene’s Rock Island Depot at 6:00 p.m. for the destination city of Enterprise, Kansas, for a stop at the Hoffman Mill and Country Store. Join us for the best Father’s Day ever on the A&SV’s Smoky Valley Limited!
A full service family friendly Restaurant complete with live music, pool tables, & dart boards
Brookville Hotel at Abilene serves up family-style fried chicken dinners and is the perfect spot for everything from small family dinners to large group parties. We trace our roots all the way back to the 1870's, when the railroad spread its tracks out across the prairie to meet the expected rush of Longhorn cattle coming up from Texas along the Chisholm Trail.

What you'll find here is down home, traditional comfort food. Along with your chicken, order from a selection of excellent appetizers like Mashed Potatoes, Cream Corn, Biscuits, and a Sweet-Sour Cole Slaw that's a family Pennsylvania recipe. Our chicken recipes go back more than 100 years, and standing the test of time, they're sure to make your mouth water each time. We have a large dining room, but it doesn't stop there. Order take-out at Brookville Hotel or let us cater your next big event!
