Expert Guide: Maximize Your Runaway Train Escape Room Adventure in Chattanooga

Escape Experience, Chattanooga's pioneering escape room provider, unveiled its thrilling Runaway Train Transport challenge last summer at the iconic Chattanooga Choo Choo. As local experts with years of experience, our team has crafted this essential guide to help visitors optimize their enjoyment and success in this immersive train-themed escape room.

Step 1: Mentally Prepare Yourself
The adventure unfolds inside a real train car with narrow hallways that may feel confining. Rest assured, it's completely safe—the walls won't close in. Take deep breaths and embrace the excitement!

Step 2: Choose Your Blindfold Wisely
Blindfolds are part of the fun, and photos are likely. Opt for a humorous one to create memorable moments. Favorites include the "frog eyes," fox face, mouse head, squinty samurai ninja, or bug-eyed designs.

Step 3: Pick The Right Briefcase Volunteer
One player must be handcuffed to a briefcase of vital documents. Select your group's most reliable and sharpest member to ensure smooth progress.

Step 4: Master The "Wobble Walk"
Blindfolded, you'll enter single file, hands on the shoulders ahead. This trust-building exercise requires a steady leader—avoid zigzagging, especially if anyone has been drinking (we advise sobriety).

Step 5: Separation Strategy Technique
Inside, you'll be split into cage-like cargo holds randomly. Stay close to preferred teammates during entry to slightly improve pairing chances, though outcomes vary.

Step 6: Tackle The Escape Room Challenges
The train feels in motion with realistic sounds and design, but focus on puzzles. Communicate, collaborate, and solve within 60 minutes. Sharpen problem-solving and teamwork skills for success. (Pro tip: Include a brave team member for unexpected challenges.)

Step 7: Check For Discounts Before Booking
Start here: Save with "Early Bird Special" or "Weekday" deals, available here.
