Saturday Evening Express will be running on June 1, 8, 22 & July 6, 13, 27. Their historic railroad operates vintage passenger cars pulled by the 1960 Alco Engine on a two and a half hour journey to the town of Bertram. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the railroad as you cross highways, span the South San Gabriel River on the wooden trestle bridge, and roll through pastureland. Then step off in Bertram for a 15 minute layover to tour our fully restored 1912 train depot! It’s a great Saturday evening outing for the family!
