Do something special for this Fall!! Bring the family to Abilene, take the train, and have lunch with us! The Abilene and Smoky Valley Railroad announces a reserved ticket option on select Flint Hills Express excursions: the Wheat State Family Diner.
Flint Hills Express (General Admission Seats).
Our climate controlled antique passenger coaches and open air gondolas await you for a rail tour of the Smoky Hill River Valley and a stop at the Hoffman Mill and Country Store in Enterprise, Kansas. Our two-hour rail adventure leaves Abilene’s historic Rock Island Depot at 1:00 p.m. Whether you dine in the Wheat State Family Diner or ride as an excursion passenger in the Chicago and Enterprise coaches, we promise a great family spring break experience on the Abilene and Smoky Valley, the Kansas Heritage Railroad!
Wheat State Family Diner (EVELAND CREEK CAR reservations only)
A new option available on some 1:00 p.m. Saturday trains in our classic Eveland Creek dining car will offer a family-friendly lunch experience for your family! We are following in the tradition of how railroads fed their coach passengers during long train trips. We have several caterers lined up for this season that will provide very special boxed lunches for our passengers to enjoy.
For this trip Martenilli’s Little Italy in Salina joins our Catering Crew for their first train and plan to offer a bit of Italy for you.
