These trains are not an amusement ride.  They are a transportation system.  Safety is our first concern, so help us make you journey a memoriable one by following these simple rules:

For Passengers

• Public passenger trains will load or unload only at the designated station stops.  Other stops are strictly the decision of the train engineer or conductor.
• Passengers must face forward and remain seated at all times.
• No Shaking and/or tilting of the railcars.
• No scuffling, horseplay, grabbing at objects, or throwing of objects from the train.
• No leaning over or outside of the car.
• Hands and feet must remain in or on the railcar at all times.
• Pregnant women, very obese people, recent surgery patients, or those with balance difficulty are strongly advised to not ride the trains.
• Absolutely no children under the age of two are allowed on the train.
• Children, two years or older, must sit in front of an adult.
• Picture taking or videos from the train can be dangerous and is not permitted.
• The Indiana Live Steamers reserves the right to refuse transportation to anyone who might create a dangerous situation while riding.
