Reno Snow Train Excursion

The Last Run!
March 6 - 8, 2012

Limited Tickets Still Available Thru Jan 30!

This is the final year for the Reno Snow Train, and tickets are selling fast. The good news is that we reserved a block of tickets especially for Museum members and friends! The bad news is that we're almost (but not quite) sold out!

Snow TrainIf you'd like any of our remaining 16 tickets, RSVP by January 30 at 5pm.

The Last Run departs on Tuesday March 6, 2012 in the morning. After 2 nights in Reno at the Silver Legacy, the train returns to the Bay Area, traveling through the Sierra mid-day to enjoy the spectacular snowy scenery.

The Snow Train uses classic single level passenger cars to journey from the Bay Area over the heart of the Sierra to Reno. The trip emphasizes the spectacular Sierra Nevada scenery, historical route, and a whole lot of fun!

Passengers can board Emeryville (9:45am), Richmond (10:00am), Martinez (10:40am), Suisun (11:10am), Sacramento (12:15pm), or Roseville (12:45pm). Once on board, you can unwind, sing-along with strolling performers, or relive the romance of the rails in the Piano Lounge Car.
