The Dennison Depot Museum is Offering Brand New Fall Train Rides
New in 2018! The Dennison Railroad Depot Museum will be having 16 train rides the weekends of October 6th-7th and 13th-14th. This is the first time since 2012 that the Depot has offered train rides other than Polar Express in December. Each ride lasts approximately one hour and will be traveling east. This will be an opportunity to ride “Rare Mileage” as passenger trains normally do not travel east in Dennison. Coach tickets are $25 for adults (13+), $20 for children ages (1-12). First Class tickets are $40 each for both children and adults. Private First Class Compartments are available that seat up to 5 or 6 people. Tickets for all our Fall Train Rides are on sale now by going to dennisondepot.eventbrite.com or by calling 740-922-6776; tickets will be mailed in September.
