Train of Lights - SOLD OUT


  • Niles Canyon Railway 37029 Mission Boulevard Fremont, CA, 94536 United States (map)

2024 Train of Lights tickets go on sale on Saturday, October 5, 2024 at 10AM. Please mark your calendars!

Also, please consider joining our email list (sign up at the bottom of this page) for added details on how best to access our ticket seller directly vs. our ncry.org website here as this website tends to get overwhelmed in the first 30 minutes of ticket sales.

We do include direct link below to our ticket seller, Fareharbor.com, below. Please bookmark these links for the specific ticket type and departure location/time and use those Fareharbor links on October 5th vs. starting here on our ncry.org website. Again, this website can be hard to reach at the start of ticket sales, and FareHarbor is where you are headed anyway, and they have much more capacity.

Thanks and we are looking forward to the 2024 Train of Lights.

Take the whole family on an enchanting holiday excursion!

Enjoy a 1.5 hour-long round trip through Niles Canyon filled with refreshments, music, and cheer aboard our antique coaches and open cars that feature holiday lights and decorations inside and out.

The Train of Lights offers a rare opportunity to experience a train ride through Niles Canyon at night.  With one departure from Niles at dusk and a second departure from Sunol after dark, you can choose your favorite time to ride.

The Train of Lights has been an annual tradition for many Bay Area families for more than a decade.  Make it yours too!
