  • Malls, outlets and big‑box retail centers
  • Corporate family days and employee appreciation events

How a typical rental day works

  • 1. Plan – We confirm your route, loading zone, run times and capacity needs.
  • 2. Arrive – Our team delivers and sets up the train 30–60 minutes before the first ride.
  • 3. Operate – Our insured conductor runs continuous loops, managing lines and safety.
  • 4. Wrap up – We handle teardown, cleanup and removal so you can focus on your guests.

Most clients see higher guest satisfaction scores, longer stays and increased on‑site spending when a train is operating.

FAQ

Answers to common trackless train questions

Don’t see your question? Contact our team and we’ll respond within one business day.

How far in advance should I book a trackless train?

For weekend and holiday events, we recommend booking 6–8 weeks in advance. For weekday and off‑peak events, 2–3 weeks is often enough. That said, we do our best to accommodate last‑minute requests—submit your date and we’ll let you know what’s available.

What surfaces can the train operate on?

Our trains are designed for paved or compacted surfaces such as asphalt, concrete, pavers and well‑packed gravel. Grass is possible in some cases if the ground is firm and level. We’ll review photos or a site map before confirming your booking.

Is the train safe for young children?

Yes. Our passenger coaches feature safety gates, handrails and non‑slip flooring. We require that small children ride with a responsible adult, and our conductors are trained in safe loading, unloading and emergency procedures.

Do you provide the driver and insurance?

Yes. A professional, insured conductor is included with every rental, along with our commercial liability coverage. If your venue requires to be named as additionally insured, we can provide a certificate upon request.

Can we brand the train for our event or sponsors?

Absolutely. For recurring events and long‑term leases, we offer custom wraps, magnetic signage and sponsor panel placements. Share your artwork or branding guidelines and we’ll propose options and pricing.
