"Buon appetito!” As we prepare to say goodbye to 2023, how about a taste of Italy? Lucinda’s Katering of Abilene gives our remodeled dining cars an Italian flair, with homemade lasagna, Italian green beans, bread sticks and garden salad! Your choice of coffee or tea and a scrumptious tiramisu for dessert! Our diesel powered December 30 dinner train leaves Abilene’s historic Rock Island Depot at 6:00 p.m. Join us for one of the Abilene and Smoky Valley’s last classy tastes for 2023…and “felice anno nuovo!”
