SUBTITLE G - EXCURSION TRAIN PERMITS

Section 3.31 Scope of Excursion Train Permit.

An excursion train permit may sell and serve alcoholic beverages on an excursion train. Sale and service of alcoholic beverages for on-premise consumption may occur only when the train is located in a territory that has authorized the sale of alcoholic beverages. A permittee is also authorized to store alcoholic beverages, legally purchased, on board the excursion train.

Section 3.32 Permit application.

An application for an excursion train permit shall be made in writing, on a form approved by the Director, and verified by the applicant for the permit. The application shall include a description of the excursion train and identify the areas where alcoholic beverages are sold and served. The application shall be accompanied by a permit fee of two hundred dollars ($200.00).

Section 3.33 Separate storage facility - Application. An excursion train permittee shall notify the Alcoholic Beverage Control of its intent to operate a separate storage facility by providing the following information.

(1) A completed excursion train separate storage facility application form;

(2) A floor plan of the separate storage facility; and

Upon receipt of an acceptable application, the Alcoholic Beverage Control shall issue an endorsement to the excursion train permittee.

Such endorsement allows an excursion train permittee to store legally purchased alcoholic beverages for sale on the excursion train.
