Unfortunately our booking system is CLOSED for 2023. Will re-open 1st March 2024

VIME is pleased to offer to run a limited number of trains for private events such as birthday parties or weddings, when possible, between May 1st and September 30th each year.

There will not be any private trains run on a date appearing in the list of Public Event Days (see calendar). If you have a small group on one of those days we would do our best to get the group on one train depending on the numbers of other riders present. Please contact the Day Manager at the site on the day.

The basic event consists of a train and crew which should accommodate up to 50 people for a 2 hour duration, for a $300.00 fee. You may pay in cash or by cheque payable to VIME, present your payment to the Engineer on your arrival. We regret that we can no longer provide rides to children under the age of 2 years.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE WILL ONLY ACCEPT SIX EVENTS PER MONTH (ANY COMBINATION OF  PRIVATE OR PUBLIC EVENT), NO REQUESTS OVER THIS WILL BE CONSIDERED. “””””UNFORTUNATELY THE MONTHS OF MAY & JUNE ARE ALREADY BOOKED OUT.”””””
