MURDER MYSTERY TRAIN

HELP!

We’re short on Detectives and need YOU to help solve a case!

We have revamped our popular Murder Mystery Train ride and look forward to sharing this enhanced experience to all of our passengers with this event.

The performance troupe that will be abroad the train this year will be provided by The Murder Mystery Company as seen on ABC”s Shark Tank!  You can view the episode HERE!

Guests should arrive check in by 5:30pm; this will give everyone enough time to grab a drink and snack and visit with the troupe onboard  before the show begins.  The Queen City Tavern Concession car accepts cash and card.

Once your case has been solved, dinner will be hosted by Watkins Catering, which is just a short walking distance from the train.  Each month will feature a selected menu by Watkins and a beverage option of water, lemonade, or tea.

Our themed Murder Mysteries promise an unforgettable evening of nostalgia and intrigue!
