Booking Your Railroad Birthday Party
Planning your Travel Town Railroad birthday party is simple. Reservations must be made in advance by contacting Travel Town. The rental fee is $200.00 for a 3-hour period, which includes a $50 refundable cleaning/damage deposit and $150 for the basic rental. This 3-hour window encompasses your setup, party time, and cleanup.
Parties can be booked daily, weekdays and weekends, with two convenient time slots:
- 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
- 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM

Important Reservation Details
Travel Town understands that unexpected events can occur. In the event of rain, a full refund will be provided. However, cancellations made by the patron are subject to a $75.00 cancellation fee. To avoid this fee in case of unavoidable circumstances other than rain, it’s crucial to contact the Travel Town office to cancel before the end of the day your event is scheduled. Failure to notify Travel Town will result in the cancellation being treated as a no-show, and the cancellation fee will apply. Should you need to reschedule after a cancellation, you will need to revisit the reservation website and begin the booking process again.
