Treat mom to something unique and special on her special day! Our Mother’s Day Brunch Train returns this season, taking to the rails on Sunday, May 11, 2025.
This ride through the beautiful Des Moines River Valley features historic 1950’s passenger cars used on the Union Pacific Railroad’s famous “City of Los Angeles” and “City of San Francisco” streamliners, which traveled between Chicago and the west coast.
This train crosses the 156′ tall Bass Point Creek High Bridge, as well as the Des Moines River Bridge, on its journey through the river valley.
