The California State Railroad Museum & Foundation are excited to present an all-new, adult-only evening cocktail train ride experience aboard the Golden Hour Express on select Wednesdays this summer. The first few Golden Hour Express train rides are scheduled for June 25, July 23, and July 30, with one departure time at 7:15 p.m. each evening.

Pulled by a historic locomotive, adult train ride guests can relax in the comfort of a first-class, air-conditioned train car or can choose to take in the sunset from an open-air gondola. With sweeping riverside views and amid a vibrant social atmosphere, refreshing beverages will be available such as locally-based Acheson Wine Company, brews and canned cocktails (High Noon seltzers and Golden Rule spirits for example), plus a variety of non-alcoholic choices as well. The Golden Hour Express offers a wonderful way to toast beautiful Sacramento summer evenings. 

Space is limited aboard the Golden Hour Express and tickets cost $45 per adult (21+) or $40 for members. Each train ride ticket includes two drink tokens (alcoholic and non-alcoholic options are available). Tickets purchased online may be picked up in the ticket office of the Central Pacific Passenger Station on Front Street between I and J streets at the Old Sacramento Waterfront. If still available, same-day tickets are available at the ticket office as well.

Advance reservations for the Golden Hour Express are available here. And, for more information about the California State Railroad Museum or Foundation, please visit www.californiarailroad.museum.
