Belton Missouri Historical Railroad

The Belton, Missouri Historical Railroad (formerly known as The Belton, Grandview & Kansas City Railroad) offers a charming trip back in time, operating as a volunteer-run heritage railway and museum in Belton, Missouri. Passengers can climb aboard vintage passenger cars or an open-air excursion car, all pulled along a historic 5-mile section of the former St. Louis-San Francisco (Frisco) railway by a classic 1950s diesel locomotive. The standard weekend excursions provide a scenic, 45-minute casual ride through the Old Town Belton area and the surrounding countryside. Beyond its regular seasonal runs, the railroad hosts a variety of popular special events throughout the year, including family-friendly pumpkin patch rides in the autumn, festive Christmas train excursions, and unique “Ice Cream Social” themed runs.
