Schedule & Fares

For 2025, our regularly scheduled passenger train ride operations will be the second and third weekend (Saturday and Sunday) of each month from March through October. Steam and diesel power will vary by the day and the month. Please visit our 2025 Rides page to get all of the current details on the fares and motive power, planning your ride and purchasing your tickets online.

We do plan to have a variety of special events throughout the year so please check under our Events tab for links to those special pages. You can also check out our Calendar as well to see what and when we are operating.

Our season will end again with the 2025 version of our famous Train of Lights. If it has not been already, the ticket on sale date will be listed on the Train of Lights event page. So please jump over there to learn more.

Please also consider joining our mailing list at the bottom of this page to receive updates on all of our events and goings-on at our Niles Canyon Railway.
