The Royal Gorge Route Railroad runs year-round and is best known for providing the ultimate experience of the Royal Gorge on a 24-mile round-trip journey, combining history, scenery, service, and delicious food. Passengers may choose to ride our Lunch, Dinner, and Murder Mystery trains, as well as special excursions like the Colorado Wine Train, Oktoberfest, the Santa Express, New Year's Eve Dinner, Ales on Rails, Mother's Day and Easter. We continue to add more themed dining experiences as we create them. The Happy Endings Caboose Cafe is a recently added dining option on our campus. The cafe is located in a beautifully restored railroad caboose & the menu includes espresso coffee, delicious sweet & savory crepes, gelato, paninis & fresh baguette sandwiches. A further addition to the Royal Gorge Route Railroad experience is the Royal Gorge Mansion. This luxurious turn of the 20th century mansion, formerly the Robison Mansion, is available for overnight stays. Photos and information regarding the mansion can be accessed at royalgorgeroute.com/dining/royal-gorge-mansion. Classes of service on board the Royal Gorge Route hark back to a time when travel was an elegant and leisurely affair, which has earned the train its reputation as the premier excursion railroad in the country. Choose multi-course meals designed by our acclaimed chef, Jeremy Garnett, who brings the bright, fresh tastes of Colorado together with classically satisfying flavors aboard the Royal Gorge Route’s meticulously restored dining or observation dome rail cars. Budget-minded passengers can opt for classic vista domes and coach style cars where guests can visit the recently restored club car for Colorado wines and micro-brews along with a full service bar.
