Murder Mystery: The Retirement of Miles Bishop

Dearest Friends and Family, you are cordially invited to the retirement celebration of the legendary 1930s jazz pianist, Miles Bishop. As he prepares to retire his ivories for a simpler life, he is set to go out in style aboard the historic Strasburg Rail Road—the oldest continuously operating railroad in America, chartered in 1832. What begins as a night of music, laughter, and high-society flair soon takes a dark turn, proving that even on a legacy rail line, the tracks ahead are never certain. Join the sharp-witted Detective Sterling Hawthorn as she navigates the high-stakes world of fame and fortune, uncovering a web of secrets woven by a high-powered agent, a jealous friend, and a famous singer. As the rhythmic steam of our heritage locomotive carries you through the night, you must help the Detective solve the mystery before the final curtain falls. Experience this thrilling, 45-minute murderous adventure where the craftsmanship of our early 20th-century cars meets a timeless tale of suspense.
