Runaway Train
Escape a train bound for destruction!
The Story
The year is 1952. You're passengers aboard the legendary Chattanooga Choo Choo, bound for Atlanta on what should be a routine journey. But as the train picks up speed through the Tennessee mountains, something goes terribly wrong.
The conductor bursts into your car, panic in his eyes: "The brakes have failed! The engineer is missing!" Before you can react, he's gone—searching the other cars for help that may never come. You look out the window and see the tracks ahead disappearing into darkness.
Your only hope is to make your way through the train cars to the engine, 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 stop the Runaway Train.
