Moonlight Melodrama Train Ride

June 7th, July 5th & August 2nd; 6:30 PM to 9:30 PM

Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad

Get ready for an unforgettable evening of dinner and live entertainment, featuring a lively production by the Golden Chain Theatre. Guests begin the night with a delicious steak or chicken BBQ dinner served al fresco at the station, accompanied by live music before boarding the historic Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad.

As the Logger steam train winds through the scenic Sierra National Forest on a narrated excursion, excitement builds with a surprise train robbery and shootout halfway through the journey. The adventure continues at the Lewis Creek Canyon outdoor amphitheater, where guests can boo the villain and cheer for the hero during a classic melodrama performance.

The evening concludes with a magical ride back under the stars, complete with the whistle echoing through the forest and the glow of the Shay’s firebox lighting the night.
