The Story

Six months ago, you inadvertently got mixed up with the mob — and you want out. In exchange for amnesty and a new identity, you agreed to testify against one of the most powerful crime bosses in the United States, Joseph Guarino. Your life has been in tremendous danger ever since. You and your loved ones were placed into the Witness Protection program and have been in hiding.

The U.S. Marshals have determined the safest and most secure way to transport you to the court hearing is via an old armored cargo train. Nobody will know your whereabouts, and after the hour-long ride to Eagleton City, you'll testify and help put the crime boss behind bars for good. To ensure your safety, you're blindfolded as you board.

Secretly stowed away in this inconspicuous cargo train, you wait patiently to arrive. But unbeknownst to you and your fellow passengers, this train was never meant to make it to the end of the line. Your cover has been blown. Your identities revealed. With the doors locked and the train's speed rising, your only hope is to make your way through the train cars, solving mechanical puzzles and overriding safety systems as you go. This unique escape experience takes place inside an actual vintage train car at the historic Chattanooga Choo Choo. Feel the rumble, hear the whistle, and race against time to escape the Runaway Train.
