Central Florida Dinner Train Service Returns

Good to know this operation is back. I've never patronized the service, but when visiting my parents, we often drove to Tavares to dine at the Crazy Gator. The track is between the restaurant and the municipal pier/patio on the lakefront. Interesting part of Florida in that it has its' share of hills.

Thanks for sharing this here - as one of the founders of the Orlando & Northwestern Rwy/Royal Palm - I will say that the novelty of telling someone you own a railroad is an eyebrow raiser.  We are a new and completely separate operation from the previous Orange Blossom Cannonball/TE&G.

We have a whole bag of tricks that we hope to start announcing soon - including Polar Express.  Dinner trains and other regularly scheduled departures will start in January after we recover from the many trips to the North Pole.
