Locomotive

Our big, beautiful, blue diesel locomotive #3118 pulls all of our Hill Country excursions! We are proud to announce that we have purchased this gorgeous piece of railroad history in 2024 and have restored it’s former number from it’s time at Penn Central. See what our engineer sees from the cab on our YouTube channel! Want to sit up front with the engineer while you ride? Add a cab ride to your trip for $250! Learn more here.
