A $100 Gift Certificate to be used towards the purchase of tickets on their Hill Country Flyer, or the Bertram Flyer.  

Take a step back in time as you step on board their vintage passengers cars for a relaxing journey to the past. 

Hill Country Flyer 

Their signature ride is back! This 66 mile round trip excursion journeys through the Texas Hill Country, crossing the wooden trestle bridge over the South San Gabriel River and Short Creek Canyon. During the two hour layover in Burnet you can enjoy lunch on your own, a leisurely stroll around the historic town square and the Wild West Gunfight (weather permitting). Finally, relax and enjoy their historic cars as the train returns to Cedar Park in the afternoon!

Or hop on board the Bertram Flyer for their shorter 3 hour adventure.  They run primarily on the weekend, with a few weekday rides available in March, June, July, and August.

On board the train, your 44 mile journey spans the South San Gabriel River and stops for a 15 minute layover at our historic 1912 Bertram Depot.
