Texas State Railroad invites you to join us for our Fiesta Flyer Dinner Train roundtrip excursion through the Piney Woods of East Texas.   This excursion departs the Palestine Rail Depot promptly at 5:00PM.  We will traverse the tracks enjoying the evening hours on our 1 hour and 20-minute journey to the Rusk Depot.   Once at Rusk, we will be treated to a catered Mexican themed dinner served on the beautiful grounds of the depot by the lake.  During dinner we will be treated to the sounds of a great Mariachi band where you can dance the night away!

Several pricing and seating options are available.  ADA-compliant coaches are available but must be booked through our reservations desk.

I love these themed dinner rides! So much fun!

I had the time of my life riding in this vintage train…it was my birthday gift from my children…it had been one of my bucket list wishes…
