        <title>Forth Dining Car is Now Open at Heritage Park</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
This year the River Forth dining car was added to the steam locomotive. Heritage Park purchased this restored 1929 observation car in 2011 from the Canadian Pacific Railway. It had to be the best investment ever as they only paid $1 for the car.


Over the last 4 years Heritage Park has been busy restoring this car and turning it into a 36 seat restaurant. They cleaned it up, upgraded the kitchen, replaced the wood inlay and shined all the tiles. They also added a few extra wheels to ensure the car would be able to make the tight turns that run along the tracks.


After climbing up a few steep steps, and walking a short distance down a narrow hall, you will find yourself in what is now known as the River Forth dining area. On one side of the car you will find four seat tables and on the other side you will find two seat tables.


Tuesday Lunch


As of July 14, 2015, you can now enjoy Tuesday lunch at the River Forth dining area. Tuesday lunches will consist of a three course menu for $59.95. Be sure to book your ticket in advance to ensure you get a seat. Boarding starts at 11am at the Midnapore Station. The train will take the usual route around the park making the occasional stop to let passengers in other cars get on and off.


As the train circles around the park, lunch will be served in River Forth. Being that the train car is licensed, you will also be able to enjoy a glass of red or white wine with your selection.


For the main course opt for either the pan seared Manitoba pickerel fillet or the filet mignon. For dessert try the warm pear clafouti. On the final loop you can relax and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea.


While the food is always delicious, it’s the experience of Tuesday Lunch that keeps people coming back for more.
