Event Description

ALL AFTER CHRISTMAS TRAINS ARE FULL


 


--THIS IS NOT THE NORTH POLE EXPRESS--


Step back in time with a nostalgic ride on the Grapevine Vintage Railroad! The railroad is serviced by four vintage locomotives, including "Puffy" the 1896 steam locomotive, the oldest continuously operating steam engine in the South, "Vinny," a 1953 GP-7 diesel locomotive and two 1958 FL9 diesel locomotives. Puffy is currently out of service for restoration. Most weekends throughout the year, the Grapevine Vintage Railroad travels along the Historic Cotton Belt Route between Grapevine and the Historic Stockyards in Fort Worth. Once we arrive in the Historic Stockyards, riders have time to explore the Stockyards before re-boarding for the return to Grapevine.

The Grapevine Vintage Railroad makes every attempt to adhere to the posted schedules. However, GVRR cannot guarantee arrival times due to sharing rails with TEXRail, Freight Trains and Amtrak. Delays or cancellations may also occur due to emergency track maintenance. In rare cases delays can be an hour or longer.
