Just a block off the main drag. You can get a full tummy for a couple of bucks and have a great conversation with an interesting owner. If you have young ones with he will let them ring the bell on the caboose and he'll blow his horn. I'd stop again even if we are just passing through the area

Great place to get a real Chicago dog, the owner is super nice, good place to take children, nice that it isn't a chain and has a lot charm. The hot dog stand is an actual rail road caboose.

The owner obviously takes great care of his investment. We arrived prior to opening, and he was very busy cleaning every part of the exterior, blowing any leaves away, and assuring everything looked perfect. The food was good--my wife wouldn't stop raving about the Dells taco's beef--and affordable. It is difficult on the strip in the Dells to find inexpensive... More

Good food for a reasonable price. Hard to find in a tourist town. The polish sausage is awesome. Fries looked and tasted like homemade, but weren't. Great service.

Good Dog, Out door seating only. Dogs served out of a Cabose the thing that pushes it a little above your average Hot Dog Stand. If you want a Dog and your down town stop by.

Anyone who loves train must visit this place for a very good hot dog and a wonderful visit to this caboose. My Grandson loved the place and even got to ring the bell. It is one block off the main strip in downtown Dells and a wonderful place for lunch or a quick snack.

The owner of Rail dog likes to keep his customers entertained! As he makes your food, he has conversations with you. He's very nice and funny. The hot dogs are yummy and the fries are really good.
