The East Troy Electric Railroad announced that it will restart its popular Dinner Train at the end of September.
For COVID-19 precautions, only a limited number of tickets will be sold to ensure social distancing. The railroad has also instilled new air filters and air ionization for passenger safety.
“We’ve installed new air filters and a pinpoint bipolar ionization system in both of our dining cars,” said Ryan Jonas, president of the East Troy Railroad Museum. “This combination will reduce the risk for spread of any viruses and provides a clean, fresh and comfortable environment for our unique dining experiences.
Five dinner train events are planned for the Fall 2020 season starting on Sept. 26 with a ‘Family Picnic Train’.
Each event will have a unique menu:
Sept. 26 - Family Picnic Train - Popcorn, Hot Dog, Chips and Brownies
Oct. 3 - Oktoberfest - German Sauerbraten, Brussels Sprouts, Bacon & Dessert
Oct. 10 - Autumn Glow - Tuscan Chicken or Whisky-glazed Brisket, Potatoes & Dessert
Oct. 17 - Sweetest Day - SOLD OUT
Oct. 24 - Adult Halloween - Wear your favorite costume and enjoy Cider Marinated
Short Ribs or a Bourbon Brown Sugar Chicken Quarter, Potatoes & Dessert
