Celebrate the Golden Age of Trains in Milbank, South Dakota, founded in 1880 when the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul first laid rails.
Train Festival provides an abundance of recreational, entertainment activities for you and your family. Ride the rails on the Whetstone Valley Express, for short rides, long rides and dinner rides. Ride in vintage passenger coaches and even "enjoy" being robbed by the notorious Valley Gang!
After you experience the real thing, be sure to check out the Model Railroad displays at the Aud on Main Street of Milbank.
As part of the event, the Whetstone Valley Rodeo Association brings you an evening of action-pack excitement including cattle sorting, calf branding, wild cow milking and wild horse racing! It's Ranch Rodeo at it's best!
A parade takes place on Sunday.
