All:   The LAST daytime train run for 2020 is Saturday, Oct 24 from 1 to 4 PM. 

Due to COVID-19 train ride tokens are not being sold and train rides are free.  Voluntary cash donations are appreciated and may be dropped in the black bucket at the train loading station during train run days.

  All donations are used by the all-volunteer CPR&SS train club to buy fuel, maintain the locomotives, cars, track, grounds, train facilities, purchase needed equipment, etc.  The CPR&SS club is a separate entity from Carillon Park and Dayton History.  With your donations we can continue train operations.  Admission to the park is required separately either by paid admission or is free to Dayton History members.  

The Carillon Christmas  begins with the Tree of Light lighting on Nov 24, 2020 and runs through Dec 30.  Train rides are planned to occur every night from 6 to 9 PM, weather permitting and other conditions such as available volunteers and properly running equipment also permitting.  Please call the Carillon front desk to confirm that the train is running before traveling to the park.
