East Troy Railroad back for 108th year

The East Troy Electric Railroad, Wisconsin’s last original electric railroad line, is celebrating its 108th year of operation. The railroad runs from East Troy to Mukwonago with regular weekend service through Nov. 1. Friday trains will run June 12 through Aug. 28.

A variety of antique trolleys and interurban coaches that once whisked passengers from major cities to surrounding towns and nearby summer retreats will be featured during the season. Special event days include Railfan Day on June 27, Chicago Day July 18 and Milwaukee Day Sept. 26.

Fares are $12.50 for adults, $10.50 for seniors and $8 for youth 3-11. Children younger than 2 ride for free.

Make it a family fun day on May 30 aboard the Teddy Bear Train where kids can participate in Teddy Bear themed activities.

The railroad returns its award-winning dinner train aboard the only interurban electric railroad car in North America. The two-hour excursion offers a gourmet four-course meal and a full cash bar overlooking Phantom Lake on June 13, July 11, Sept. 26, Oct. 3, Oct. 10, Oct. 17 and Oct. 24.

Rail fans will get the opportunity to dine aboard former coaches of the Chicago South Shore & South Bend Railroad with family-friendly pizza train rides on June 27, July 25, Aug. 8, Aug. 22 and Sept. 12.
