Climb aboard, sit back and relax, be waited on, or put on your dancin’ shoes, party and make merry aboard one of Fillmore & Western Railway Co summer dinner trains.
Murder Mystery Dinner Theater is the most popular as you “guess who dun it.” Dancing and dining are features of other summer dinner trains such as Margarita Madness or Shake, Rattle & Rail.
If you want to kick up your heels or dazzle your guest with a creative night to remember, climb aboard one of our themed dinner trains. Shake, Rattle & Rail departs on the first Friday night in August and September at 5:30 p.m. During the one-hour train trip west, a 50s diner menu is served. Once in Santa Paula, attend the classic car show on Main Street, featuring many customized classic cars. Re-board the train at 8 p.m. and during the trip back to Fillmore, the DJ will have you dancin’ to the oldies in the dance car.
For a bit of Latin flavor, Margarita Madness features a sumptuous Mexican meal, accompanied by a slushy Margarita. After dinner, dance on the open-air dance car to the sounds of a live band. Saturday night August 13 and September 17 are the last of these popular summer dinner party trains.
The most popular dinner train during the railroad’s 15-year history has been the Murder Mystery Dinner Theater. Each mystery is a comedy, nothing serious about our murders. An elegant dinner is served as the actors involve guests and give clues throughout the evening to “solve” the murder(s).
The Great Train Robbery dinner train is set for Saturday, August 20 and is a fundraiser for the Santa Clara River Boys and Girls Club. Robbery, bribery and mayhem will prevail during the journey, but prepare to be robbed. Reservations for the Great Train Robbery can be made by calling 805-525-7910.
