Mothers Ride Free on Mother’s Day (and the day before!)
The Northwest Railway Museum invites mothers of all ages to enjoy a free ride aboard our antique train, when accompanied by a paying child of any age. Passengers may board in Snoqualmie or North Bend for the 70-minute round trip. Passengers may get off at the halfway point, shop, eat lunch, or take a stroll and then return on any later train. Trains depart every 75 minutes beginning at 11:01 AM from the Snoqualmie Depot at 38625 SE King Street and at 11:31 AM from the North Bend Depot at 205 McClellan Street. Roundtrip fares are $10 (children 2-12), $15 (children 13-61), and $12 (children 62+). For more information, visit www.trainmuseum.org or call 425-888-3030.
Celebrate National Train Day May 12
National Train Day returns to the Snoqualmie Depot on May 12. Enjoy a dose of history while celebrating Mom. See historic Snoqualmie on a beautiful May day, visit the restored 1890 Snoqualmie Depot, ride a vintage train past the top of Snoqualmie Falls and celebrate all things train. It’s Amtrak’s 41st anniversary and a great day to celebrate!
Visitors to the museum experience the excitement of a working railroad while learning about the important role railroads played in shaping the character of the Pacific Northwest. The depot and bookstore are open to the public 10–5 daily.
