Doors Open: 12:00 PM
Celebrate the birthday of our country at the Heart of Dixie Railroad Museum with a good old-fashioned train ride, and picnic in the pavilion for the whole family!
Traditionally dressed partisan soldiers from the Revolutionary War will be camping on-site throughout the day. Learn from these "Sumter's partisans" who fought to defend South Carolina from the invasion of the British. Watch campfire cooking and traditional bullet-making, and see weapons/equipment that were used to defend and establish the United States of America.
Everyone with a paid train ticket on this day will also receive a meal voucher for a hot dog, chips and a drink -- compliments of Mainstreet Calera! Additional meal tickets may be purchased separately from the train tickets for $3 (cash only). Lunch will be served from 11:00AM to 1:30PM.
Active and Retired Veterans are invited to ride the Stars & Stripes Special and enjoy their meal for FREE (with valid ID) - Thank you for your service!
The train ride will last approximately 75 minutes. Pre-purchased tickets may be picked up at the depot, or tickets may be purchased on-site the day of the event while supplies last. Tickets and info at www.HODRRM.org or 205-757-8383.
