Ever dreamed of being a train engineer? Here’s your chance!
Climb into the HOTT Seat with the Hands on the Throttle (HOTT) Experience and take control of a historic 1946 GE 44-Ton locomotive on a real short line railroad with over 140 years of history! With this experience you will not only be operating the locomotive, but you will operate with real train cars attached on a real railroad.
And the best part?
This experience is uniquely yours – It’s just you, a guest, and the train crew in the locomotive. No crowds. No distractions.
Just you and the power of the rails.
More than just pulling the throttle –
• Experience aspects of being part of a train crew
• Work with friendly instructors and crew members
• Earn a Certificate of Participation
• Receive an Official STRT Hat
• This experience is open to ages 13 and over. An adult must accompany minors. Price includes 1 HOTT SEAT Participant and 1 guest.
Photos will be allowed in the locomotive cab while the train is stopped.
Note- In case of inclement weather, we will notify you as soon as possible and we will have a make-up date.
