Events Description

 

Get Ready for an Immersive Prohibition-Era Train Experience!

Step aboard… and step outside the law.

For the night, the train becomes a rolling speakeasy, and you become part of the operation. The booze is hot. The cops are watching. And somebody’s going to crack!

Upon arrival, you’re recruited into a notorious smuggling ring. Each railcar is run by sharp-suited gangsters and quick-witted molls under the leadership of Uncle Leo, the mob boss. Learn the ropes. Play the angles. Bluff your way through dice, cards, and shell games. Earn your reputation.

But watch your back… the police may board the train. Can you hide the evidence? Can you keep your cool? Interact in gangster games of chance, be entertained by songs and dance, and don’t be afraid to embrace your inner 30s gangster. Maybe you’ll be named “Lucky Lefty,” “Knuckles Malone,” or “The Queen of Gin.”

At journey’s end, you might be arrested, have your mug shot taken, or slip away into the night free as a bird.

This isn’t a show you watch. It’s a show you get to be in. Fast money. Loose lips. Moonshine on the rails.

Do you have what it takes to run the rum? We’ll be giving away a special prize to the best dressed!

Choose to experience this immersive prohibition-era train ride in either Lounge or Coach.
