Pick your event, we’ll pick the package

Next stop: the birthday

Birthday Parties

The Choo Choo Express pulls up to the party, rings its bell, blows its horn, and every kid in the yard lines up. Booked by the hour with unlimited rides, so nobody has to wait their turn twice.

Next stop: the carnival

School Carnivals

School carnivals, day care centers and fall festivals run on throughput. The Choo Choo Express loads fast, circles the campus, and can be hired by the hour or sold per ride as a fundraiser.

Next stop: the festival

Community Festivals

Community festivals, church fairs, neighborhood block parties and street parades — the Choo Choo Express rolls through the crowd with its bell ringing while riders wave to friends and family.

Next stop: your brand

Corporate & Grand Openings

Grand openings, company picnics, country club days and promotional events. The Choo Choo Express gives families something to do and gives your event something people photograph.

Next stop: the holidays

Holiday Events

Holiday events, street parades and family reunions. The old-fashioned steam-train look of the locomotive, the ringing bell and the trailing little caboose fit right into the season.

How it began

My Story

“Being an admitted railfan for over 50 years, I’ve often wished I could share my love of railroading with my family and friends during a special event.”

That wish became Choo Choo Express Trackless Trains — a fun, entertaining attraction with the look and feel of a real train, brought straight to family events across Texas.

The train showed up right on time and the kids lost their minds. Our conductor was so patient with the little ones — best money we spent on the whole party.
Melissa R.5th birthday party
Parents were riding it too. The bell and the horn had the entire street lined up for another turn. Booking was easy and delivery was included.
Daniel K.Neighborhood block party
Longest line at the carnival all afternoon. Setup was quick, everything was clean and safe, and the crew clearly loves trains. We are booking again next year.
