Murder Aboard the Waipuk' Express

An Evening of Elegance, Intrigue, and Mystery on the Rails

Murder Aboard the Waipuk' Express

Saturday 21st February

Step aboard Steam Incorporated's historic diesel hauled train where champagne flows, jazz crackles through the air, and the world of Art Deco decadence surrounds you. But beneath the glittering surface, danger lurks in the shadows. When murder strikes mid-journey, every passenger becomes a suspect… and every clue brings you closer to uncovering the killer.

Will you solve the crime before the train reaches its final stop—or will the murderer slip away into the night?

An evening of intrigue, elegance, and deadly secrets awaits. Dress to impress, sharpen your wits, and prepare for a first-class journey into the golden age of mystery.

Art Deco dress is greatly encouraged! This is an 18+ event.
