Public Dinner Train

The dinner train features dining on two finely restored 1940's vintage dining cars. Also featured, The Queen City Tavern car, which is equipped with a full service cash bar with music and two open side doors for viewing as we travel through Cincinnati.

The public dinner train operates every Saturday throughout the year. Tickets are sold on a first come basis and will be held at will-call, to be picked up at BBQ Revue the day of the excursion.

The dinner train departs from behind BBQ Revue restaurant located at 4725 Madison Road. Dinner Train passengers can enjoy free parking in the open lot provided, along with public restrooms before departure. The train will depart promptly at 6:00PM (7:00pm during June, July and August) and travel easterly to downtown Cincinnati, and then to the riverfront. Here our locomotive will do a pull-around and change directions to head back to BBQ Revue. The excursion lasts a total of 3 hours. On board, we will serve four courses with choices of Hickory Smoked Prime Rib, Salmon with a spicy hoisin glaze or Boneless Chicken Breast sautéed in white wine sauce. Almost all tables seat up to four people, with the exception of two booths that seat two. Everyone will have their own window in either our 1947 New York Central dining car or our 1946 Milwaukee road table car 201. Large restrooms will be available as well as the Queen City Tavern car for after dinner drinks.

Ticket prices are $69.95 per person plus tax, gratuity not included. Our 1940's style servers and conductors look forward to serving you as we all step back into the simpler and less complex times of the 1940's. There’s nothing like dining on white table clothed tables while watching the scenery slowly go by as your dining car gently meanders down the track.
