Day Trip: Trains, Pies and Chicken… Oh My!

October 12, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm

Sec.# Day Date Time Fee
01 Wed. 10/12 11:00am – 5:00pm $55/$60 (1 day)

For ages: 21 years & up.

All aboard the East Troy Electric Railway as we enjoy our chartered 25 minute ride to The Elegant Farmer, an upscale shopping experience that was featured on the Food Channel. They are famously known for their apple pie baked in a brown paper bag. On the way back we will have an early dinner at Crandall’s in Hebron. Dinner includes: all you can eat broasted chicken, rolls, cole slaw and choice of mashed potatoes or french fries. Notice: This trip involves walking from the train depot to the Elegant Farmer shop (which involves stairs). The cars used at the East Troy Railroad Museum are historic, original streetcars and interurban equipment, designed long before the ADA was enacted. However, many people with physical limitations are able to board and enjoy their trip if they can navigate a few steps with some help and taking the time they need. Registration deadline: October 3 (spaces permitting). Transportation provided via Park District van.
