It’s not dancing or music but the original story about rocks. The western United States was opened because of the great gold, silver and copper rushes. On board the train is a lively presentation by a geologist that includes railroad and mining history and a show and tell with ore samples that you can take home. Included on the ride is a tasty dinner - a beef and potato Cornish pasty, the standard fare of miners, beverages included. Beer or wine is extra.
