Feature Country Dinners to Big Valley

Introduction

All Trains Depart And Return To Stettler, Alberta

POSTPONED UNTIL 2022. These trips are a variation on a "Country Dinner" which are the most frequent and popular excursions we offer. Includes steam or diesel-powered rail excursion lasting between five to five and one-half hours, full course buffet meal at destination, entertainment, sightseeing & maybe even a train robbery. These trips are great for children and families. The destination for Alberta Prairie excursions is Big Valley. This community was the divisional point for the Canadian Northern Railway in the early 1900s. Feature attractions include restored railway station, roundhouse interpretive centre, St. Edmund Church and Jimmy Jock Boardwalk.

Menu Options

Because of the nature of what it is we offer Alberta Prairie Railway is not able to provide alternative menu choices. Over the years what we have found is that guests find the buffet more than amble with lots of choices. In special circumstances, and as an alternative to the meat dish offered, guests can request a high-quality vegetable burger by pre-ordering at time of booking.

PUBLIC TIME TABLES & RESERVATIONS

Alberta Prairie reserves the right to substitute excursions to destinations other than those shown in this schedule and to use alternative motive of power in case of mechanical failure.

RESERVATIONS ARE RECOMMENDED
Reservations can be arranged by phone using MasterCard or VISA. Although we can sometimes accommodate passengers without reservations, we do sell out and a reservation guarantees seating.

Cancellations within the last week, but more than twenty-four hours receive a gift certificate with a face value equal to tickets returned and that value will apply to fares on a trip sometime in the future.
