We are excited to continue the tradition of a Valentine's Dinner in the Diner at the Museum of the American Railroad. This year's event will take place on two days - Friday, February 14th and Saturday, February 15th. Space is limited, so reserve your table now. This event sells out early! 

Here’s your opportunity to return to a time of romantic and exciting travel! Railroad dining cars rivaled the finest hotels and steamships when it came to exquisite food and service. The Museum of the American Railroad invites you to join us for a most unique immersive experience with your special someone. 

For an even more enjoyable evening, dress in 1930s-1940s attire and enjoy the intimate Valentine’s Day dinner in our restored 1937 M-K-T dining car on February 14. February 15th's theme is Denim & Diamonds, so get creative! Guests will be treated to first-class dining in the grand manner. Each evening begins with appetizers at 6:00pm inside TrainTopia at the Frisco Discovery Center. At 7:00pm, our conductors will show guests to the Dining Car for dinner.

Guests will be treated to drinks & authentic railroad dining car cuisine created from original recipes. Tables will be adorned with china, starched linens, and fresh flowers. Space is limited to 36 guests per night, that’s only 18 couples! This is typically a sell-out, so don’t hesitate to get your tickets now. Proceeds benefit the Museum of the American Railroad’s educational programs. 

Tickets are $325 per couple which includes dinner, drinks, and a keepsake menu, no additional gratuity or expenses necessary. 

Join us as we bring this prized piece in the Museum’s collection alive. Treat yourself to impeccable service, reward your appetite, and let your imagination take you to your favorite destination. Questions? Phone (214) 428-0101. 

Menu includes non-vegetarian items and is not gluten free. Two person tables will be filled based on preference and a first-come-first-served basis during registration. Once two person tables are filled, our Steward will follow community seating at four person tables. Please note that walking on uneven ground and climbing stairs are involved, due to continued construction on the Museum's grounds. 

The Museum of the American Railroad is located adjacent to the Frisco Discovery Center at 8004 N. Dallas Parkway, Frisco, TX 75034. Please park at the Discovery Center and enter TrainTopia for appetizers. Afterward, our Conductors will show you to the dining car for your very special evening.
