RELIVE THE GOLDEN DAYS OF RAILROADING as you travel aboard the elegant Dining Car "Chocorua." Built in 1929 for service as a coach on the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, "Car 2570" was remodeled and put into service here in 1992. Wonderful meals are prepared on board and are served to you with warm, friendly Yankee hospitality. In the true spirit and tradition of railroad dining, you may be seated at tables of four with other Dining Car Guests.

The Dining Car Chocorua will resume service in June of 2010. The new menus will be posted by March.

Lunch is served daily on the 11:30 a.m. departure to Bartlett (1 3/4 hr.) and on the 1:30 p.m. departure to Conway (55 min.). A contemporary lunch menu from Crawford's Restaurant includes an appetizer, a variety of entree selections, and dessert.

For dinner, enjoy fine cuisine and a leisurely 1-3/4 hour journey through the Mount Washington Valley countryside on one of our "Sunset" departures. The dinner menu includes appetizer, salad, a choice of entree and dessert. Choose from a tempting selection of house specialties prepared by Crawford's Restaurant especially for us.

Dinner departures are on on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays late June through September, as well as the first two weekends in October.

All of our Dining Car fares include First Class accommodations, the meal, taxes and gratuities.
Vegetarian options are available for both lunch and dinner.
