Kimball Hall, (free) Train should offer more TRAIN from page 12 ing I had been seated in the “Maple Creek.” This is the only car where a group of actors, put together by Holly Nielson, performs a murder mystery. The guests interact with the actors and take notes to decide “whodunit.” Nielson said every show is differ ent, and that it’s “in-your-face drama.” One couple, Myla and Tim Jones, were chosen to be actors from the audi ence. When asked what the best part of the evening was so far, Myla Jones replied, “I like the history and meeting people. It’s a great atmosphere.” They obviously had a different experience than I did. Although it was interesting to ride on an old train and feel glamorous for 10 minutes, I felt as if I was sold short. Because I rode on the dinner car and not the murder mystery car, my evening consisted of a five-course din ner, a quick tour of the other cars (which made me feel a pang of jeal ousy) and clips of old ’40s movies toward the end of the trip. The meal might have been enough to keep us occupied, except for two things. One, you could get the same entree on a United Airlines flight and two, the trip was 3lA hours long. Perhaps it’s because I’m a college kid, and $50 is a lot of money to me. Or maybe it’s that I don’t get that sentimen tal feeling like the people who lived through the period did. It did seem as if the other people on my car, who were all older, enjoyed themselves. I did catch a few people sneaking peeks at their watches, though. I think the important part is to catch a show there. In the future, the dinner train will be presenting Oktoberfest, a Halloween show, and USO shows. The train is also available for charter, and Eveland said he was “open to many concepts and ideas” people have for parties. it Its a great atmosphere Myla Jones dinner train patron It’s not that a good time can’t be had on the train, but bringing a good con versationalist is a must and first dates are not advised. The drive there is pleas ant, and it was nice to get out of town and see something different. However, if the train were more authentic, the wait staff were in cos tume, the food were high quality and if each car had entertainment, a better time would be had for the price. I think of it this way : As of right now, the dinner train is like commu nism - it’s better in theory than in prac tice. able work experience? Check out Nebraska State Government’s SOS Program!
