Abilene & Smoky Valley Railroad's Smoky Valley Limited

If you want a great weekend outing, come to Abilene and take the train for a taste of Germany!

Wilkommen to the A&SVRR Smoky Valley Limited! We're proud to feature great German food, complete with German beer on a two-hour train trip through farmland originally settled by German immigrants who migrated to the Kansas territory in the 1850s. On Saturday, July 27 the Abilene and Smoky Valley Railroad presents a taste of German culture, as the Smoky Valley Limited hosts Chef Manfred LaGrange of Schatzi's Schnitzel Haus in Riley. Enjoy your choice of schnitzel (breaded pork chop) or German beef goulash with homemade spatzle (noodles), rotkraut (red cabbage), and for dessert, luscious black forest cake. Iced tea and water accompany the meal. And for an extra charge Schatzi's has German beer! The train leaves our 1887 Rock Island Depot at 6:00 p.m. Enjoy a taste of Germany as the Abilene & Smoky Valley Limited glides through the river valley for a two-hour dining adventure on the rails of Kansas history!
