Great Train Robbery     July 10-12, 2008, 2007
The notorious gang of outlaws known as the Rawhide Renegades rides again during the Spooner Rodeo.  This gang of misfits stops the Wisconsin Great Northern trains and climbs aboard to put on quite a show.  With their Six Guns blazing, the Renegades have been known to take hostages along with whatever loot they can scare up.  This is one wild west recreation that you don't want to miss!  This is the 52nd anniversary of the Spooner Heart of the North Rodeo and is sure to sell-out so buy your tickets early!

Dinner with the Outlaws     Friday July 11 & Saturday July 12, 2008 at 4:00 pm
Dinner with the Outlaws is a great event added to our schedule last year and was a great success.  After a long day of robbing trains, the infamous Rawhide Renegades need to relax and find some grub.  Our evening train will take you to their secret camp and you will have a chance to chat with these modern day bandits.  As the train arrives the desperados will ride up to the train and then escort you to their campsite.  The kids might even have the chance to take a short ride on one of the bandits horses.  You will be treated to a western barbeque and maybe even some range songs around the ole' campfire.  An old fashioned marshmallow roast will complete the evening before your ride back to civilization aboard our historic train.

Tony's Riverside Family Pizza Train
Our Family Pizza Train is our most popular train because it combines everyone's favorite meal with a scenic train ride.  Year after year Tony's Riverside, the popular Spooner gathering place, cooks up the best pizza around and delivers it hot to the train.  Your ticket aboard the Family Pizza Train includes the 1 3/4 hour train ride, 1/2 pizza per person and your first soda.  Family rate includes 2 adults and 2-5 children, 2 pizzas and a beverage for each person.  Make your reservations for this family favorite.

Sunday Brunch Train
