All Aboard Washington is planning an event to be held at the Northern Pacific Railway Museum at Toppenish, WA.

Date:  Saturday, August 8, 2026

Time:  11:00am to 3:00pm  

Cost : $ 40.00 per person

What is included:

• Admission to the museum
• AAWA private use of the Northern Pacific dining car for the day. 
• Lunch: choice of various sandwich options by Panera Bread including chips and cookie.
• Soft drinks and bottled water courtesy of AAWA.
• Guided tour of the museum grounds.
• Opportunity for a ride on a speeder and/or push car.
• Diesel powered train trip to the city of “Nowhere”.      

Required to make this event happen:

• Minimum of 20 people committed by July 1, 2026. (to make the event financially possible).
• Maximum of 40 people (dining car capacity).
• Payment of $40 per person required in advance (to reserve the dining car).  If the event is cancelled, payment will be refunded.         

This is a fantastic opportunity to see the recently restored NP1364 steam locomotive and a great price for a train ride, museum tour, dining car reservation for all day, and lunch.

If we have a few serious AAWA donors, the Toppenish museum staff will fire up NP1364 and take us on a steam train ride to "Nowhere" for a cost of about $700.  We are told that a crew of three is required and takes about two days to get the locomotive up to pressure.

This will be an in-person event only.
