Local train enthusiasts will have the opportunity to go on a unique weekend trip next month. Robert Tabern, Executive Director of the APRHF Rail Rangers, says people will be able to ride inside an Authentic 1955 dome car called “Prairie View”.

The car will make a stop in Mendota for boarding around 4:30pm on Friday, Sept. 9th. But Tabern says you can board it in other cities too.

Tabern adds the ticket price for the Sept. weekend trip includes round trip train fare, two meals, two nights at a hotel in La Plata, Missouri, and a guided tour to take place on Saturday.

The 1955 dome car called the “Prairie View” will stop to pick up passengers in Mendota at around 4:30 Friday Sept. 9th.
