Photo/Caboose

UNFORGETABLE!

Enjoy exclusive use of the caboose by you and your private party guests. Climb up into the cupola for a bird's-eye view of the train as it as it rolls through Niles Canyon, along the scenic route of North America's First Transcontinental Railroad.

The Santa Fe caboose provides a special ride for groups of up to 20 or 24 people (depending on whether they are adult-sized or child-sized). Two small serving tables are available for your refreshments. There are windows on the main floor, but the best view of the train is from the seats high up in the cupola.

The reservation fee is $75, regardless of the number of riders, plus a fare of $10 per adult, $8 per Senior, and $5 per child. The caboose is very popular, so be sure to reserve early. Call (510) 996-8420
