About Our Team
Do you know what it takes to run a train? It takes a crew. But to run the Napa Valley Wine Train? It takes a team. Our team members are as diverse in their skill set as they are in their background. Our team ranges from janitors to accountants, chefs to train conductors, and servers to shop keepers. But we are not a team because of our differences, we are a team because of what we have in common, and what we have in common... is you. The mission of every member of our team is to provide you with a superb Napa Valley Wine Train experience. We hope that you will allow us to serve you.
Chef Kelly Macdonald
“To me, sitting down and eating is a celebration of life and the experience should be savored as much as the food.”
