From New Year’s to Christmas and every holiday in between, the Grapevine Vintage Railroad offers themed train rides in Texas for every season. Sip wine with your sweetie for Valentine’s Day, meet the Easter Bunny, and get whisked away to the North Pole on the Polar Express. If you’re in search of a unique way to ride the rails, look no further!
With authentic, 1920s Victorian coaches and themed train rides year-round, it's always a good time on the Grapevine Vintage Railroad.
From the Sweetheart Wine Train for Valentine's Day to the famous North Pole Express at Christmastime, the railroad celebrates every season to the absolute fullest.
Don't forget to wear green when you climb aboard the Kiss Me I'm Irish Express! Local brews and Irish-style hors d'oeuvres are on tap for this epic ride.
October is also time for Day Out with Thomas, a collaboration between Grapevine Vintage Railroad and the Museum of the American Railroad. The classic children's book comes to life, offering an enchanting experience for all ages.
Christmastime brings the North Pole Express, complete with lots of decorations, hot cocoa, and visits with Santa and Mrs. Claus. Remember to wear your holiday PJs!
If you just want to experience a classic train ride without all the bells and whistles, the Grapevine Vintage Railroad offers that, too. Trains depart from the station every day, leading passengers either to the Fort Worth Stockyards or along the Cotton Belt Route. There is also a trip that departs from and returns to the Stockyards.
