An evening of elegance, history, and celebration, you can 'golf' at the Baron's Back Nine, photo bomb in front of the Santa Fe 3768, celebrate with old friends, explore the history of railroading in Wichita and the surrounding plains, and bid on an array of amazing silent auction treasures. At the end of the night, the attendee with the highest level of participation becomes the Inaugural Baron of the Ball and takes home to traveling trophy. Most importantly, you preserve our rich railroad heritage by supporting your train museum in Wichita, the Great Plains Transportation Museum.
