Description

This unique attraction features the 618, a 1907 vintage steam locomotive, which pulls passengers in authentically restored vintage coaches on one- or two-way trips from Vivian Park up Provo Canyon, around Deer Creek Lake, and through the beautiful Heber Valley.

The 618 and her sister engines also transport visitors on such fanciful evening adventures as the Sunset Special, Pioneer Day Lakeside Limited, Storytelling Train, and the Christmas Train – featuring a dramatized reading of Chris Van Allsburg’s The Polar Express. Call for train departures, varies depending on season and event.
