Railing in the Money! w/ Streetwalker Tours

April 15, 2023 @ 10:30 am - 1:00 pm

Get Tickets Here!

Come with my dad and me as we explore Tulsa’s transportation history.

In 1882, the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad extended its line to Tulsa to serve the cattle business, the city’s first industry. The 1901 oil discovery changed Tulsa from a cow-town to a boomtown!

We will walk the route where oil and rails meet to Tulsa Union Depot near the Center of the Universe

2nd Half Jump in your cars and follow us on Route 66 into West Tulsa to the Route 66 Historical Village, 3770 Southwest Blvd, located along historic Southwest Boulevard, experience fully restored remnants from the city’s early days, Frisco 4500 Steam Engine, passenger car, caboose and oil derrick.

The oil derrick stands 194 feet high and is the historic site of the first oil strike on June 25, 1901 that made Tulsa the Oil Capital of the World

Finish with Lunch at Ollie’s Station 4070 Southwest Blvd

Where we have a chance to visit and share experience and what may be coming on future tours!
