Chicago Car USO Show with Smoky Valley Limited Dinner Train Veteran’s Day

November 8, 2025 5:00 PM

A VETERANS’ DAY WEEKEND, Abilene & Smoky Valley Railroad style! Veterans Day celebrates the dedication and selfless sacrifices of men and women who have served in America’s armed forces. Join us for a throwback to the war years, as we present our USO Show tribute, featuring Erin Fox and John Robison performing in our Chicago car as they salute veterans on the Abilene & Smoky Valley Railroad’s Flint Hills Express!

Passengers in all three cars will enjoy a great steak dinner from Legacy Kansas/Brookville Hotel in Abilene, the home of quality Kansas raised Munson beef. Join us for your choice of a fillet, ribeye or KC strip, cooked to perfection, with those famous Brookville Hotel sides: mashed potatoes with cream gravy, cream style corn, coleslaw, and homemade biscuits, topped off with the Brookville Hotel’s old-fashioned homemade ice cream for dessert. Iced tea, coffee, and water will be served. Beer, wine and soft drinks are available for purchase.

Our train will leave Abilene’s historic Rock Island Depot for a round trip to Enterprise, with a 30-minute layover at Enterprise’s Hoffman Mill and Country Store. Treat the veterans in your family to a taste of Kansas-style fine dining. Join us on the Abilene and Smoky Valley Railroad, the Kansas Heritage Railroad! NOTE: all steaks are cooked medium.

The total price, $101.42 includes ticket fees and taxes.
